Wheel nuts - alloy wheels. (Update)

Star down under.:

citycat:
I have some factory fitted alloy wheels on my TGX, complete with wheel nuts with a collar apparently to help the nuts seat against the alloy.

I don’t suppose anyone knows the diameter of the collar? I was given some doughnut style wheel trims for xmas and when I went down to the local Euromaster to have them fitted, the tyre guy explained that the trims were for steel wheels, and that the bracket holes would have to be enlarged to accommodate the collar on my wheel nuts. I just need to know the diameter to enlarge the hole to if anyone just happens to know?

Talking of nuts, I see there’s a few new user names on trucknet so thought I’d repost a link, showing how a girl in a mini skirt can help you if your nuts get stiff. :smiley: Someone may find the info on her ‘nut cracker’ useful. She’s not a patch on Angelica Larsson though.

I hope you’re not knocking our Aussie Sheilas. :wink:

I wouldn’t dream of it. You have some very nice ones, and they’re handy with a set of tools when my coach broke down in Austria.
