Hey,

Just wondering where you guys are buying your wheel studs? After some rears.
Ripco want $25ea, Nissan $22ea, SC $20.83*ea (but I have to buy 6), orrr I can get them for $5.10ea :shock: (plus shipping) from AU.

Anywhere here that does them for $10-15 or less?

Edit:

Just in case anyone is ever looking this up, here are the prices I got (rear only):

Don Kyatts - $6.20ea
Davies - $10.90ea
Nis Blen - $15ish
SuperCheap Blen - $20.83 sold in packs of 6
Nis Chch - $22 or $25 Forgot to write it down
Ripco Blen - $25ea

Nissan part number

N:40222 c6001 rear
N:40222 c6000 front

Cheap Aus site was here: http://www.allfourx4.com.au/ (I'm sure there are others too).
Get things sent to a mate to forward on to make postage cheap if you take that route.

I brought some for a subaru a while back for $5 or under each.

Cheapest place was Davie Motors (Holden Dealership) in Manukau.
Had all sorts there, straight from the parts department.

Generally known as the biggest rip off place ever! Go figure.

I can get them on trade account at Repco if you want me to get a price?
Other option is buy them in oz, get them sent to an address in Sydney before the weekend, and I can have them in ChCh by next Monday.....

Yup, Davie Parts. That's where We get 'em. They stock the aftermarket 'Nice' brand. They do some real long (75mm or so) generic suckers too if anyone needs some.

Cheers for all the help guys. Don Kyatts is the winner. $6.20ea (that might be ex, can't remember) and they have a lot in stock.
Nissan Blenheim got back to me with $15ea ($10 cheaper than Nissan Chch :shock:) and Davies were about $11ea

They are sort of an oddball pitch but for the price you can get them retail in Aus anything over $10-12ea seems a bit criminal.

Thanks for the offer Dave. Might have to hit up your Repco account another time haha
Enjoy the trip!

Cheer dingo. Would just rather throw a couple of brand new ones in there for piece of mind. Will be in touch if I destroy some more though :lol:
