Hi all,

Looking for a new steel set of wheel nuts for my Mk1 once I have some Rotas. Does anyone know a reputable seller / place I can get some!?

Ebay have 'tuner' ones which after reading reviews seem to snap. Other types have no locking nuts.. don't want aluminium! It's a bloody nightmare!

Appreciate any advice or where you guys got yours!cheers.

I was eyeing up a set on Demon Tweaks but didn't actually buy them yet...

Are they steel!?

I should have said, ideally I'd want black.

Is there any worth buying on ebay? (While I have 10x nectar points haha)

Cheers

As above should be fine.

I have Muteki SR35s and would recommend them, well made. Bought them for new wheels two years ago, I haven't had to touch them yet but the paint coating seems to have held up well. I can't say how good/easy to use the lock key is, I couldn't see it snapping as I've heard some do, but I didn't get any complaints from the garage, who seemed pleased I hadn't bought aluminium nuts.
