Wheel nuts

[bmxdave]

What type of wheel nuts do i need to buy to fit alleycats on my car. Ive got steel at the moment and normal wheeolnuts will elongate the holes. So do i buy nuts with square ends instead of conical or with a washer or do i buy alloy nuts?

 

Also, im not sure wether the thread is imperial or metric. The nuts fit 19mm sockets. Does that mean theyre metric, or do the imperial still fit in 19mm's?

 

Cheers.

I don't know what nuts fit alleycat wheels, but can say that using a 19mm socket to remove the current nuts doesn't mean they're a metric thread.

 

If in doubt take one off and go down to a nuts bolts and fastening type shop, they'll be able to identify the thread. If they look like they aren't going to play ball just ask for a bolt to fit this please. Then ask what thread it is when he supplies it, even if you have to buy one it'll only be a matter of pence.

try these people mate, http://www.speedshack.co.uk/ very helpful when i needed nuts for my allycats, the ones that fitted mine were Chrome Bulge nuts if i remember correctly, your best bet is ring them and tell them what thread you want and what wheels they are for
