Any one have suggestions as to where best to get wheelnuts for 4 stud speedlines as the standard nuts on my 5th gen dont fit . Any help appreciated.

sounds like you need tuner style wheel nuts - there will be loads to choose from on ebay but ive heard there are a lot of fake sets so youd best check with others once youve had a look.

I looked around and got these direct from Tegiwa:

Loads of fakes around on ebay and had peace of mind for a little extra cash, locking too ;)

Not only that, they have survived a full winter driving daily in Scotland unmarked, unlike some that others have experienced :twisted:

Here's a pic of them fitted, they stick out nicely 8-)

Problem is with the speedlines is that the hub cover hits the wheel nuts, so I reckon i need shallow slimline nuts, but not sure :?

some of the small locking nuts type fit. I had a full set of them on my 18's
