Alloy or Steel? |

I would say they're anodized alloy. |

They are quite expensive....as usual... I found them here in Malta for €80 for a full set, but they have the brand letters painted on the front ![]() |

just place in your mind that genuine ones are 11 euros each, and be very careful buying cheap ones, they might not have the correct radius cut seats. |

Got fed up with the rapid deterioration and cost. I now use a set of steel ones from Jasmin and dipped them in a solution which blacks them and stops rusting. It only takes some gorilla with an air gun to ruin the originals. https://www.frost.co.uk/extra-blue-blac ... gKFKPD_BwE |

I think the anodized alloy nuts even get marked with a good twist of a socket, even by hand ![]() The only real benefit I think is they are very light; if that is any real advantage. I only bought new ones to compliment having the D90s Powder Coated. As my original wheel nuts have gone well past their prime with use over time. |

Holy thread resurrection ![]() In the market for a replacement set of wheel nuts and not wanting to pay £175 for a genuine set of 20 from Porsche. I've found the following on the bay of gems - ![]() £59.99 from Alloy Wheel Solutions - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Set-of-20-x- ... 2273216782 ![]() EDIT: Just noticed are these ones no good as they are 60 degree taper and not the correct radius cut? £29.99 from Alloy Wheel Solutions (with 4 locking nuts) - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Set-of-20-x- ... 2276828989 Just wondering if anyone has ordered the cheaper style nuts that have the donut ring on the end? Considered getting normal steel lug nuts as well - ![]() EDIT: These are also 60 degree taper... £15.49! - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/20-x-M14-x-1 ... 2263946292 |
