Does anyone know which locking wheelnuts fit the Vixen. We are having a spate of precious metal thefts from cars around my neck of the woods at the moment alloy wheels ss exhaust catalytic converters and even door mirrors. I don't want the B*****s to get my wheels.

threads are same as a TR6. Maybe Rimmers do one that fits?

Not exactly "locking nuts" but can't be un-done with standard wheel brace... clicky

If studs are TR6 they'll be 7/16" unf, unfortunately these things seem far more readily available in metric sizes.

There's a few older cars with UNF nuts, cheaper option may be Triumph Saloons/Stag, if you can find them, they are the same thread.
