Wheel nuts + locking nuts replacement - 200 FF Cup

[andy9l]

My wheel nuts are rusty and I definitely want to swap them rather than use covers.

Currently sporting the standard Cup anthracites, but will probably swap them for Speedlines eventually.

What wheel/locking nuts are you using? How have they faired? And how do they look?

Cheers,
Andy.

Edit: cut down post!

Someone recommended me taper pro bolts? Any good?

On this page: http://www.taperpro.co.uk/2012/bolts.htm

Do I need 16x WB7774028Z?

Then 4 locking nuts from here: http://www.taperpro.co.uk/2012/locks.htm

I think I need 4x LBC674105F?

The bolts are 1mm too long, but I've read that's ok?

Still open for specific suggestions on this, really struggling with this...

I think that was me :bounce:

Few people on here had them which is why I bought them, they stilll look brand new 6 months on and they've been on/off about 10 times in that period.

Have you got a link/part numbers mate? So many different measurements and styles....

Thanks for the advice as always guys.

Cheers mate so there the right size then 14-1.5 tapered ?

 

[colt3003]

Selling my Speedlines and you can have the locking wheels nuts with them haha

Yup m14 1.5 28mm

 

[andy9l]

So I took off my wheels today...except the driver's side front one. The b*gger snapped both of my locking keys.

I'm definitely ordering some different bolts. The stock ones rust and the keys are pathetic. I'm not a particularly big guy...I shouldn't be able to snap metal.

Anyway, I've sprayed all the other bolts black for now to see if I like the colour. I'm torn between silver and black on my anthracites so thought I'd give black a test run. I'll be ordering some of those tpi bolts this week.

M14, 1.5, 27 or 28, tapered, right? Anyone got the right part numbers for black/silver bolts and locking bolts??

Just a warning, some of the Meg chaps who've had the tpi bolts have had them go rusty within a year.
