where to get standard wheel nuts?

Postby gmacrae » Sun Aug 05, 2007 7:52 pm

I need another set of wheel nuts, but none of the usual parts places have good ol plain wheel nuts like what come stock. They all want to charge $15-20 per wheel for chrome mag nuts - who's been able to find somewhere that sells them in sets of 16/20? I aint spending $60 on some bloody wheel nuts lol

Cheers

if only it were that simple lol. I've got about half a dozen mates in town that work in tyre shops - no go. No pickapart here, dunno what the wreckers are like there, but here they'll hardly talk to you unless they see a way to rip you off. $&#$% that. I just want to buy a set - anyone?
