Having a bit of a crisis!

Just had some old GB alloys refurbished, and all the normal wheel nuts I have won't get onto the thread.

I have tried every conceivable non sleeved type.

After a lot of googling I have found an eBay listing 151540297866 which has a picture of the nuts I think I need. http://pages.ebay.co...id=151540297866 picture 3.

Anyone know anywhere that sells them?

Any assistance much appreciated.

Cheers

Mike

Have you tried minispares? They do a good range and do some that 'look' like those. Are you close enough to one that you could take a wheel over?

I did give them a call on Friday but not sure I was getting the correct advice as they said cn1 or cn4 which I have tried.

Can't see anything on their website that looks correct, although CN3 looks something like it.

I think I will measure the diameter of the holes today. That is probably a good start.

If not, have a look on ebay, there is a guy who does hundreds of types but they are expensive (about £7 a nut I think).

Cheers. Came across that earlier.

Having measured holes and depth, minispares CN3 seem to fit the bill but will call them and check.

Thanks for all the help.

The CN3 doesn't seem to have the taper on the washer.
C-21A1969 look closer to me.
