Help with my nuts!
I have just purchased a set of Inovite Redlines. I fitted them today using my original chrome wheel nuts, these were fitted to my MY99 16" alloys. The problem is I am not happy that they are correctly fitting. Do I need to get some different nuts? If so which ones? My locking nut seems to fit perfectly as the tapered end is longer. Cheers

They usually come with there own nuts? longer internal hex wheel nuts.
You may find that the hex edge of a standard nut will dig into the tapered seat on the wheel.

I did do the original nuts up tight and yes they did dig into the tapered seat, only a little but it did give a few flecks of alloy! This is why I wasn't happy with the fitment. I have checked the wheel and it has just taken a very fine layer off. I bought these off of a member on here, can I buy the nuts from anywhere else?
