Right guys, can you point meet in the right direction? I have a spi Cooper running on 10 inch banded steelies. What type of wheel nuts will I need, I'm currently using the ones off the old 13 inchers and they're incorrect. i believe there is a few different types?

If they are later copies, or alloys made to look like steels etc, I would be careful to check with the manufacturer in case they used the later 60Deg straight taper.

Thanks chap much appreciated. Im not sure if theyre repos or not. However they are steel without a doubt.

Nope. I just never seem to ever see mini's on this Island. Apart from my neighbours

There is a mini rental company over here (which is apparently quite cheap), so we tend to see quite a few of his cars on the roads.
