Frayz, I think you need to sort your centre caps out. they dont match the rest of the wheel colour ;)

fpan 17 July 2008 05:08 PM

Where can I get hold of these?
I am looking for some black ones to match my new wheels
How come one of your centre caps is silver and the other one black?
:)

frayz 17 July 2008 05:09 PM

Thats how they came mate... ive got some the gold ones but prefer my silver ones.

fpan 17 July 2008 06:24 PM

Guys, where did you buy the Rays wheels nuts and how much where they?
Are they aluminium?
Cheers :)

One is of the original cap, the other is when I made some black ones up to compliment the Black nuts

STI Wheel Nut Set (Black) ST28170ST020

I got mine from the USA, Edo Performance.
these cost me about £150 i think they RRP about £200


Not sure where the other guys bought their RAYs nuts but I have used this site in the past for a lot of stuff: -

scotthldr 18 July 2008 09:42 AM

Question for all the guys with Rays nuts.

Have any of you had problems with the nuts discolouring? I have had mine on for 2 years now but within the first year they discoloured from Blue to a patchy White:wonder:. I don't use any solvent cleaners on the wheels just hot soapy water and a soft bristle brush

You can just make it out in the pic below all four wheels have the same problem.

sherlock 18 July 2008 09:49 AM

Trails did a GB on here last month from BOB'5, thats were i got mine from. I think he still has some left, Link
Dunno about discolouring because i've only had them on a few weeks!!!

Mikkel 18 July 2008 09:56 AM

My nuts all soapy

DanTerzo 18 July 2008 12:17 PM

scotthdlr- Ive only just put mine on in the last few weeks so cant comment, i hope they dont discolour too much

fpan 18 July 2008 01:51 PM

Will short nuts be OK for these alloys?
They are prodrive GT1 ones.

DanTerzo 18 July 2008 01:54 PM

SC008Y_MAD 18 July 2008 02:06 PM

Yes, but I would go for a small edge on the 60 deg tapper if I were you. OEM wheels tend to have a shorter seat.

I just ordered these from Keith @ Revolution and they are internal drive to protect the shaft:thumb:

I am not sure what you mean by 'small edge on the 60 degree tapper' :confused: Do you think the Rays ones will be a bit too wide for the OE wheels then?
The only potential problem with the above is that it needs a 12mm allen key whereas the 'standard' Ultralite External Nut (first on top of page: Revolution) looks more like the OE ones.
How come these are so much cheaper than the Rays ones?


Cheers :)

53 18 July 2008 03:37 PM

£££ Because they are Rays ! ;)

They come with the internal drive key ;)

Rays would fit fine. Look at your OEM nuts and you will see a shorter 60 degree taper.

Longer in a shorter is fine but shorter in a longer can carve up the wheel seat depending on the nut.

For example Frayz's speedline wheels come with shorter taper nuts for the speedline fitment, but the Rays work fine :thumb:
