Default What alloys and nuts do you have?

Just trying to workout which alloys fit which wheel nut? Just wheel make and what nut style is al you have to add.

eg Rota alloy with Scot Lowe nut

Mine are standard OE alloys and nuts

Thanks

OEM 17's on standard nuts
Rota SDR's in 17 on Rota supplied nuts (7.5" wide fitted with Bridgestone 55s track day tyres 225/45R17)

The Rota nuts are as ugly as sin, but have a different 'face' shape compared to the OEM nuts

Julian at Rarerims (http://www.rarerims.co.uk/index.php) sorted me out, and IIRC included the nuts with the rims FOC.

They have lightweight ones at GBP3 per piece! GBP120 for nuts seemed a bit extreme to me!

I wouldn't think the Scott Lowe ones would be suitable for the Rota SDR's if that's what you want to know. The OEM nuts are certainly very different and I would assume the Scott Lowe ones would be a direct OEM replacement

Kei 18" Kei RSS , nuts are Turner M12*1.25, wheels were supplied with Turner Spline M12*1.25,but subaru dealer said they were un-happy about torqueing the recommended 74 lb's on the spline type nuts as they might break. so I brought Turner type which are fine.
