Aftermorning guys

this maybe a stupid question, but do stock Liberty Wheels require a special wheel nut.

i just got my Liberty GT Rims from being powdercoated (but need to be taken back and redone ) and the wheel nuts bought dont seem to fit.


Cheers

how come they need to be redone mate?

and all i'm aware of is the sizing and tapered or non tapered. there's probably more to it than that?

Cue others input

[bd-850]

the rims need to be redone because some of the paint has rubbed off in transport, had them wrapped up in a jumper. phoned them up today and yeah have to get them back and they will redo the rims,

Shouldn't need anything fancy.

12x1.25 is the size you are after

[bd-850]

yep yep, ive got 12x1.25 they are 30mm long and are about 20mm too long (i want a flush fit) and the taper in the wheels dont seem big enough.

just wondering if the stock wheeels required stock wheel nuts

i will try and get some pics later,

What kind of nuts are you trying to use?

[bd-850]

[Scott]

your going to need the small stock ones if you want them to sit in the cutout and not stick out

[bd-850]

hmmm thanks Scott

[Scott]

or buy some aftermarket small black ones

300mm? Your nuts are F@#K'n huge.

60deg pitch on the mating surface of the nut to wheel. Pretty much standard fare. They are normal nuts, you just bought ones too long. If you want them to sit flush like oem.....

Exactly the same item in the link I posted and on my CS9's Chris.

Your links cheaper though and I bought my last set from that seller albeit the closed end ones.
