Has anybody had the washers on the wheel nuts interfering with the hole in the wheel so that it is very difficult to undo the wheel nuts? ie they are still very hard to turn even when wheel is loose. Would love to know a simple solution/

Yes, i get that, although it has only recently started happening. I have used a bit of copperslip on them.

OK will give that a go. It seems that the washers have scored the socket in the wheel quite a bit

Once again it seems that I have assumed something that has upon investigation proved to be incorrect. The wheels on my car are not supplied by Ultima but once again by AN Other ltd.
I seem to be making a habit of this which is embarrassing.
