Wheel Nuts

[Veg]

Taking the wheels off the V8V and the wheel nuts seem to be 22mm - but one or two are a fraction bigger and the 22mm socket won't fit. Assuming I can be a muppet sometimes, am I missing something, like covers?

Hi, I had a similar issue with my V8V, on mine most of them appeared to fit a 22mm socket nicely but one or two were 21mm. AM assured me that they should be 21mm on my car. The chaps at Bridge Mill Motors put it down to the fact the nuts are a 2 piece design with the outer being a cover, the inner nut can corrode which forces the outer to bluge. Hence mine expanded from 21mm to 22mm.
I need to get around to replacing them but 20 nuts at around £8 each it's not cheap. In the meantime I have to use a mix of sockets when taking the wheels off.
