Oz racing split rims

[D14 AYS]

Evening all,

I have recently acquired a set of oz wheels for the Griff, had them refurbed, had a set of Toyo's fitted to them today (£306 fitted, bargain I thought.) in readiness for a trip to Jersey in the morning, jacked the rear of the car up, took one wheel off, put on my shiny new wheel, put the nuts on, went to put the wheel centre on you guessed it, wheel nuts too long.

What are the wheel nuts I require? and where can I get them from?

Thanks in advance for any help.

The wheel nuts are basically the same as the fronts with the end machined off!!!

Mine (not sure how original they are) were cut down so that they would fit. it does look a bit amaturish in the way its been done, but maybe thats factory standard? and they've never fallen off...
Who refurbed the wheels?

PX wheels in Blackpool,very pleased with them considering they are about 15 years old,£380 plus £45 delivery and collection.

make sure you either coat them with wd40 or wax.... otherwise you will not be so pleased with them..... \i had mine refurbed was unaware the shiny rims needed protection.... now they are pitted so not to pleased.

Definately saw a red one last year and was surprised to see the multispokes were 17"'s allround.
