Be careful with d1 spec wheel nuts, can't comment on the short ones but the long type i had on mine and when it came to taking them off they twisted quite noticebly, was using a fairly long socket but it didn't reach to the base of the nut.

they do standard and extra long,maybe ive been lucky but i always use a 19mm deep socket and take them on and off by hand

Okay thanks !! any idea what the " CYF " on a few off them mean ?? is this a standard marking on wheel nuts or just one used by certain makers ?? just wondering if they are possibly a known decent make ?? they certainly weigh very little !!
