wheel stud for specials...?
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi -
Please can anybody advise me on the length of stud I should have for Mini special wheels?

Thanks!

Al

Oh - and could anybody suggest a set of security nuts for them? :)

iirc the studs are standard length, its the nuts that are specific to the wheel.

one day boost will be mine!

in regards to wheel nuts if you havent got an original set i would recommend getting a set of mini life wheel nuts and put them in a lathe and machine them down so they fit obviously buy more than you need and make sure that there not to long after i.e the bolt coming through the wheel to much

Try this link original wheel nuts, got some the same as this for mine.

im stuck with this as well.

Ive had to put small spacers on the back as it was touching the spax shock.

ive ordered two sets of wheel nuts and there both different. i'll try and get some photos of them, but they dont seem to go on much. Im thinking of getting longer studs, then the nuts with holes all the way through,

im going to phone around and see what people are sellings.

thats one of the sets ive got. but im not the keen on them.

Standard length studs. I've got my nuts from Jonspeed. Not cheap but the only place I could get them!

does anyone know the mini special nut dimensions? shank diameter and shank length? also thread pitch?
i know someone who does nuts but need to make sure i get the right one (and make sure he sells the right ones!)
