Titanium Wheel Nuts?

[greyhulk]

After pursuing stainless steel wheel nuts with no luck (shinynuts no longer trading & act are not doing them either) I settled for just some zinc coated ones from evilbay, however i just came across these titanium ones..

link http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GENUINE-TITANIUM-WHEEL-N...

The price is steep i know (ive contacted them to see about doing stainless steel which should be half the price of these)

Now i may be wrong with the size.. Ford M12 x 1.5, 19mm are the current wheel nuts i have on my S, these titanium ones do look very much like them BUT im sure 7/16UNF in metric is m12 x 1.75 hmmm

Cheers

7/16unf is a completely different thread form to your metric wheel nuts and would not fit your car.

But if you've bought them I'll have 'em for my Taimar

Mike, I fear your are starting to develop a bit a fixation with this stainless steel stuff ....

Steve, you can always cheat and get the chrome plated plastic wheel nut covers that just slip over your plain nuts ( Ooo-er Missus! ) Nobody will ever know, will they Longers?
