Wheel nut sizes are they same as Chimaera?

[kippax]

Does anyone know if the wheel nut sizes on the Cerbera are the same as the Chimaera or not? I bought some Zinc TVR logo wheel nuts for my Chimaera & I have since traded it in for a Tuscan & the nuts are a different size on the Tuscan (slightly bigger) I am selling the nuts but need to know if they will fit a Cerbera or not any idea's?


Thanks
Howard.

The same socket I used on the Chim fits the Cerb, but my Cerb is of a 98 vintage. It might be year dependent.

Aside - you're aware that the Chim is a 4 bolt pattern and the Cerb a 5 bolt pattern I assume?

Cerbs have different wheel nuts depending whether they are spiders or the old style wheels. I think!

I use a different socket for the nuts for my Chimaera but the nuts were still the same size thread so that's no indicator. I have been told that they will definately fit 94-97 Cerbera's but I am not sure about from 98 on is this when they changed to spiders?? If so that will explain why they don't fit the spiders on my Tuscan.

Thanks
Howard.

p.s I am aware that 20 will be needed for a Cerbera unless locking nuts are fitted?

Sorry to state the bleedin' obvious to you Howard - no offense meant re. the bolt pattern comment if that came across as harsh.

None taken although I am still none the wiser I know they fit models up to 97 did they change the size of the thread then?

Thanks
Howard.

Cerbera nuts are a different thread to that of the Chimaera and are not interchangeable. 1/2 inch UNF instead of M12.

Yes there are several people/suppliers that claim they are the same upto 1997 but they are not.
Been there... done that... bought another set of nuts
