Title: Which locking wheel nuts
Post by: pyranhaim on 19 May 2012, 17:50
Need a new set of Locking Wheel nuts for Standard BBS alloys on Mk2 Golf GTI 8v. I think I need radius 12mm with a 26mm thread -  is that right. Any recommendations or otherwise.

thanks for your help.

They do look the ones on the car but theres others for sale which suggest this tappered design is for aftermarket alloys and I need a radial type. The BBS were pretty standard wern't they or would they be considered aftermarket for this purpose.

You would need radius bolts as they are oe spec wheels.
