anyone have any open ended wheel nuts to fit under the accord type r wheel center caps. the closed end nuts for my type s wheels are to big. i seem to recall the motegi caps are different to the accord r ones. so not sure if the motegi nuts are the same as the accord.

the thing is, its quite urgent as i want my wheels on for japfest.

I have 16 open ended OEM nuts on my S2K wheels but would quite like closed end OEM ones.

Only problem is they're on the car and I don't have spares. :?

They're the same ones I had on when I had my Motegi wheels. They fitted fine under the caps.

Just to save everyone some time and employ some logic. The only difference between the ATR and Motegi caps is the very middle H badge. This is the same diameter on both and doesn't intersect a lug hole. The Motegi H bit bulges, the ATR is more flush. The rear is flat.

So, if it fits one, it fits the other.

I had this problem when I first bought my motegi wheels. I bought some closed (but shorter) ones off ebay, and seem to remember delivery time was fairly quick so that might be an option.
