Default Ultralite wheel nuts, has anyone bought these as a pack?

just wondering if you get a socket/adaptor in the pack or just the nuts?

i only need 12 and at £4 a pop i don't need any spares

one other thing, do they need torqueing to a different ammount to the steel ones?

this is what i'm thinking to be honest, i guess they are just an alloy so do them up to tight and you'll strip the thread or round them off like you say.

so you had a socket come with the pack mate?

These aluminium nuts are hard anodised and quite tough. Read somewhere it is recommended that they are copperslipped. Be careful to keep threads clean as minor damage to threads from dirt make them tight on studs.
