Hi, does anyone know what locking wheel nuts to get that will be alright for the 'special' alloys?

I've run my splits for like a month now with no locking nuts! Eeek! Think it's about time I get some >_<

If you're not aware, 'special' nuts are the ones with a washer on, so what locking nuts will be best?

Cheer, Jamie

Each brand of locking nuts are available in most different nut designs. I have Tri-Locks on my Specials, you just need to order the right type.

I've wondered this myself before too as I plan on fitting my exactons eventually. So someone somewhere does a locking nut for the exactons? As I'm only aware of Jonspeed reproducing the right nuts, other than oe.
