alloy wheel nuts

Pfff, what happened to the 16 i gave you ;)? Anyhoo, Ebay usually has a good selection, they are a funny shape tho Pug ones (at least, the 405 ones were) with a tapered end, so make sure you get the right ones.

Ah, well, they're still on the 405, and I can't use them ,'cos otherwise the wheels keep dropping of that.

There were some pug nuts on ebay, which I bid on, but I was sniped :( Looking at the mounting holes in the wheels, it looks like the nuts should have a sort of tapered bit and then a flat flangy bit at the top....

I have the steel wheel nuts - they have a tapered bit which matches that in the wheel for location, but no flangy bit to spread the load, so I reckon there's a danger they'd pull through the alloy, which would be A Bad Thing.

Puegeot dealer?

About £4 each. I may have a set somewhere. if you can wait till the weekend i can have a nose about for ya.

BLOODY HELL. They only used to be £1 at Ford.

Aye, which would make the nuts more expensive than the wheels and tyres :)

That would be excellent. Thanks.

Otherwise, a breakers yard would be a good bet.

Yup, good idea. *time warp* The chap at the (only) local scrappy reckons he doesn't have any in, although it might be worth going for a wander round. Assuming that my new best friend Carl doesn't find any :-)

Shame, as my mate scrapped a 205 a week or few ago, and that had had alloys on it in the past, so they were probably the right type. Ho hum.
