i bought some inovit redlines second hand, just had them refurbed, took them to get the tyres fitted and balanced and the wheels fitted to my scoob to realise the standard fat nuts wont fit in them and have been told i need some thin/long ones..can anybody point me in direction of some asap?

Cheers

 

Try speaking to Maggy, he might be able to help you out.

 

What colour? I have these for sale https://www.scoobynet.com/private-fo...ml#post9703060

 

Think you need internal drive ones, my old redlines were supliied with these, should not cost you too much for a set.

 

I bought these for mine. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/D1-LONG-WHEEL-...#ht_3772wt_922

Available in other colours too

 

Yep, you do need different ones. I've got redlines and they have thinner bolts and are the locking key type... dont think they came with the alloys, bought separate from Revolution

 

Have a chat with Maggs (Top bloke )I'm sure he can sort you out. If not try scoobyparts;

ahhhhh so confused, lookin at some i cant tell if they would fit or not, the D2 ones that jameswrx look the best so far..

@JamesWRX do you have those nuts installed in redlines or different alloys?

 

Any nut with a 60 degree taper and is M12 X 1.25mm should fit your wheels. If you buy from a decent trader they will ensure you have the right nuts.

 

I had those exact ones on a set of redlines.

 

cheers james

 

D1 Spec nuts fit them. Get internal drive ones though

What are internal drive ones?

 

Internal drive have an allen key type thing that goes on the inside of the nut rather than a traditional socket that goes on the outside, this then has a nut on the end so you can use your wheel brace. Internal drive are used for wheels with a smaller hole around the nut.

 

Ive been running the standard STI bolts with my redlines for 3 years without any problems. Sorry to be thick but can somebody shed any light on how this nuts work?

 

cheers for the help guys, bought a set off M444GY

 

Just for the record these are internal drive, means the hole that the nut sits in does not ahve to be big enough to get a wheel brace in and around the nut, the wheel brace can be as big as you like because it will be connected to the nut outside of the hole.
