Stainless Wheel nuts

Where can I get some from (and what size will i need).

I have a MY99 Type R ltd, with 17" OZ alloys, and when replacing the disks at the weekend, one of the wheel nuts (not locking) snapped in two (I assume that the garage who fitted the tyres done it up too tight!)

I have a set of OE Scoob nuts, not including locking ones, off an 04 WRX.

How many do you need?
PM me an addy and I'll send you some.

I have 18in OZ's on mine and you need the correct nuts for the job.The OE ones aren't the correct size because the taper is different.I recently got new ones from Demon Tweeks and they were about £1.50 each (My old ones looked corroded even though the wheels are only 2 ish years old)
Alyn at ASPerformance.com may be able to source you some too (Free delivery for Scoobyntters too I think)

Good luck
