um why do you need 40mm locking nuts??
buy some decent hubcentric spacers (H&R) which bolt to the hub the you bolt the wheel to the spacer using standard bolts and locking bolts  :wink:

hubcentric r by far alot better than the ones that just hang there becaus they dont sit on the hub which means the wheel isnt sitting properly an its only being located by the bolts which isnt safe

the ones that bolt to your hub are fine just the hella coil will always be a weak point
