Hi TMF,
I've recently bought a set of the Minispeed 10x5 Alloy Cooper S replica wheels, the ones that fit over 8.4 brakes. Does anyone know what wheel nuts will suit them? They haven't arrived yet so can't check. Will my standard 12" steel wheel nuts work? Or should I buy some of the old 10" ones?
Thanks a lot,
Will

depends on the seating in the alloy i think , if you do have to buy some new ones theres a seller on ebay that sells stainless I've got a set they look very well made

Without seeing the shape of the seat on the wheel and matching the nut to it, you could end up spending money on the wrong nuts and knackering the wheels.
60° taper and round seat nuts are NOT compatible, and can lead to all sorts of damage and trouble.
