Racing Wheel Nuts

Hi guys,

 

Just a quick daft question.

 

Looking at racing wheel nuts, ie ultralite and rays etc, and just wondered that as these are so much lighter than stock if there is any issue with breakage etc.

 

Just not sure if ideal for big bhp cars etc.

 

Advice / personal experience welcome.

 

Cheers

I ran the WED light weight nuts on my car, it did 600 BHP dyno pulls and road mapping and use with no issue, combined with a light weight wheel (SA70's) the difference in the way the car drove against the Blitz 19" wheels was amazing !

Cheers for the quick reply.

 

I've got a set of compomotives going on the car. Obviously not the lightest of wheels but nice and sturdy...you should see some of the roads up in Scotland...you'd think it was the dark ages!

 

Just thought they might be a bit too "sturdy" for lightweight nuts.

 

Thanks again

 

Cheers
