I need some wheel nuts for my wheels.
They are wolfrace slotmags, 13 x 6.5.
I think the holes are similar to the ones on revolution alloys.
The holes are 20mm diameter by 20mm front face to mounting face.

Wolfrace do not have the same nuts as revo's!!

Grayston make wolfrace nuts, and can be got from your local car spares place, or from Jonspeed / Somerford.

They use a sleeved nut, with a dished conical washer, not a flat washer.
D1's share the same nut, but use a flat washer, essential not to get these washers mixed up.

I'm pretty sure they arnt wolfies, as the brand is cast into the rim and have different shape holes and dish.

They look like Cobra Superslots.

be honest they look like the wolfrace and the cobras. cant see the markings very clear at the moment as there is loads of paint on the backs of them. here is a close up to decide on which nuts i need.

oh well, perhaps they are cobra superslots then. Im not clued up on the old wheels.
I got these because they are something different from the norm in the Mini scene, plus they have a deep dish too. and where quite cheap too.

Had a look at Graystons website and looks like they should be able to help me.

Could be quite interesting on the 'what wheels' front. Found some markings and showed them a bit of sandpaper.

Heres what come out!
