We've got some of those 70's wolfrace wheels, the little 10" jobbies with 5 cutouts on each wheel.
What nuts + studs will i need to fit them? i dont think the kit from the mambas will work?

Any ideas would be helpful, before i phone mws on payday.

measure the inside of the bore alex, that way you should be able to tell if they need sleeved nuts & washers or normal nuts

if its close to the size of the actual stud you'll need normal nuts of some type, from this point you'll need to look at the point which the nut would engage on the wheel, if its tapered you'll need taper nuts, if its flat you'll need std nuts and washer, there might be some other types about ~ infact mws might be able to tell you straight away, worth a shot?

is that the radial gap when the stud is in the hole?

check to see what it is using an imperial scale ruler

there's the triumph sleeved nuts which are 11/16's sleeve diameter (as used on sprectrums) as opposed to the 9/16's of the mambas & revo's
