Default Thin locking nuts exist at all?

Just i have wheels which are rather close in terms of the nut & the hole they go in so currently have nuts with the alan key kinda bit in the middle so you can get them off, in the absence of being able to fit a wrench etc onto the nut. & as such was wondering what possibilities there were for slimmer than the average locking nuts? Any tips or advice?
Cheers folks
Si

Thumbs up Yes they are available......

The wheels you describe are similar to mine. I have BK238 wheels and have sourced locking nuts for them. Approx £25 a set. Ask at either your local alloy wheel stockist or general motorspares shop to source some for you.

BK racing locking wheel nuts.
