Wheel nut/Spacer sizes
Wheel nut/Spacer sizes
Need some details here folks.
I've got these wheels getting refurbed at present.
They are 17x7J 35 O/S. The PCD is 114.3x5.
I need to buy new wheel nuts,as the wheels were supplied without them, but I'm not sure which ones to buy.
Does anyone know the correct width and length of the thread and any recommendations as to which nuts and spacers to buy.
Thanks.
do you not have the 18 inch aero wheels fitted??why the drop to 17's
M12 x 1.5
21mm hex
This is for the standard wheel nut size mate? but you'll have to check if there a flat fitting or domed fitting needed for the wheels?
Looking at the pic, you might need tuner style nuts?
oh ps i'm running an offset of 35.......DO NOT USE SPACERS my wheels sit in line with the arch any further out and they'd rub....

Yeah I think you'll need the "tuner" nuts too. Maybe it's me, but I used to have no idea what this meant until I went looking for wheel nuts for my Chicanes. These are the nuts that are designed to sit within narrow holes, so they're quite thin and usually come with a special adaptor for your normal socket.
Do check what the seating is on the wheel though, e.g. domed/flat, as Bandit said, this is very important.

Yeah, that sort of thing. There are various types that are similar. You need enough clearance to get the nut in and some sort of socket/tool to tighten/untighten it.
