Wanted to put a set of my Volk rims onto the S14.
The trouble is, I soon realised that the standard wheel nuts wont fit down the thin shaft on the rim. Now seeing as the wheels fit ok on the FD (using a socket), I guess I just need a new thin set of nuts.
Where can I get them from, and what do I need. Must be in simple terms, because I really am a noob on this kind of thing.
I know I can probably get Volk ones, but Im thinking cheap...
Thanks
Lee

Hi Mate, most good alloy wheel shops will be able to supply thin wheel nuts.

This may help,
My wheels are Kosei\'s with very small holes to put the wheel nuts into and l need a deep-shank 17mm socket to fit onto them, so if you say you have these wheels [that they stock ] you should be O/K.
