wheel nuts

[cerdad]

does anyone make stainless steel wheelnuts??

[BMartinsWheels]

I've searched all over with no joy for stainless wheel nuts. You'll probably know that jeep ones fit. I got a set on ebay for about twenty quid but the chrome plate is fairly quick to come off. Even searched when last on the hols in miami for something in stainless that might share the jeep fitment with no joy. If you come across any options It would be great to know.

I know of bloke who makes stainless wheel nuts (he makes them for scimitars but will do others). If there's enough interest, I could find out if he can make cerb ones and how much?

He may even be able to add the TVR logo as he did some with the scimitar shield on it.

But if he did, I'd have to get some for mine as well!! Late Christmas present??

Let me know.

Cheers

Thats what I was about to say! I had shinynuts on the Tamora, they were great, didnt tarnish at all. Which is more then can be said about the spider...

Could also get these made in polished Stainless or Alloy, but, depends on interest.

I have a few 'lumps' of Monel kicking about somewhere, they would make lovely wheel nuts.

Rob, I would be interested if the guy you know can make them up.

Gents,

In the true spirit of cerbera ownership, I've dropped him a line to see if he can.

I'll let you know the outcome!

Right, I've been in contact with my mate who knows the guy who makes them.

Does anyone have a technical drawing for the nut? If not, he'll have to work on getting an old one and then replicating one.

I guess if we don't have a technical drawing, I'll be back looking for someone who has an old nut kicking around their garage (and I don't mean the driver!!)

Cheers

Rob,
I have my original ones TVR, they are a bit 'pitted' but can be used as a pattern. If you need one or two drop me an email and I'll post you a couple.

I still have the set I bought from Shinynuts so it's not a problem.
