Wheel Nuts

[harryoz]

Tried the search option, but no luck, so...

Has anyone ever replaced their wheel nuts with aftermarket ones? If so, which ones and where from?.

I find the nuts with the nut covers a pain in the arse.

If you have a CV8 the VXR nut covers (which are chromed) look good.

All this talk of nut covers is making me a bit uneasy...

Thanks mate, I have the chrome ones (they came with the coupe4 wheels). They tend to get all bent out of shape when you need to prise them off the nuts to take the wheels off though. So I was hoping someone had done all the hard work of finding an aftermarket wheel nut that fits....

Cheers

I have a set of ROH wheel nuts that came with my wheels, not sure how long they would last in the UK winter though.

You should be able to pick up a removal tool for you covers, I have a Citroen one that does not damage the covers on removal. It also has a plastic socket at the other end to take of the locking wheel nut.
