Invalid or non-existent item ID.Need new ones as one of mine was to tight, tried the trolly jack on the end of the wrench and the car lifted! Eventually used the 14lb club hammer method!

Any one have experience of these ones?

Two answers for the price of one.
They look good value for money, but don't know who's used them. Most people use McGard.

The nuts with the locking mech on the outside of the nut are more vulnerable to thieves than the McGard type, but as only another f/tf owner would be able to use your wheels, there is a reduced chance of theft, anyway

The price seemed almost too keen for me but I thought they would match the OE standard nuts well.

The wheels also fit maestros, montegos and a lot of 60's and 70's british cars and chavs assume they fir Rover 200's etc "cos it's a Rover mate, init?"

i bought mine off flea bay, cost £16 for 16 nuts chromes, i found the ome nuts a pain and they started to round, i havent fitted my locking nuts back on, waiting for a decent set to come come around

As F/TF's are so few over here and the PCD is odd, I have discarded the locking nuts and taken the chance who would want my wheels!

Looking at the ones I posted and several similar they seem to all have the same pattern on the lock nut which suggests to me that they only have 1 pattern and that is why they are so cheap.

Worth a punt at that price?
There was a guy selling mcgards on ebay for £12, but I've just checed and he's sold out.

Hmm, bit of a waste of time posting this then.
