mk1its Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Guys I need to fit some aftermarket alloys soon however the holes for the bolts are very slim so the bolts will not even fit down the holes! As such, and this brings back some memories from the NA Supra all those years ago, that whilst fitting aftermarket alloys I had to purchase some aftermarket wheels bolts or nuts. I can't remember what the Supra uses but can anyone point me in the right direction or just give me a name for what I'm looking for please. I'm off to eBay now to start searching!

Noz Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 I am unsure of the diameter of the bore of your wheels, so I can't comment on after market nuts or OEM nuts. But what I do know, is after market wheels use a 60° cone on the internal face. The OEM supra nuts are flat facing. You won't be able to use OEM nuts on typical after market wheels, though I'm sure there must be the odd exception to this. I would use and use slimline nuts on your wheels. And perhaps contact the supplier asking for the outer diameter of the nut, to ensure they fit the bore of your wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, quick edit, I ended up buying honda locking wheel nuts too! which are pretty $^*&*% good ha As Noz said, OEM nuts no good, they just sit in a bag next to my OEM wheels now!
