wheels..... wells too deep..

[laidbackfreak]

ok im on the verge of swapping my standard wheels for some 17 inch rims ive picked up.... but on first attempt ive hit a snag...
the wells for the nuts are a lot deeper and quite narrow... so i cant get the locking key over the locking nut to tighten it.... i think the others should be ok tho... anyone come across this before ??
soloutions ??? if i bin the locking nut how easy is to find a standard replacement ?

I gave wolfie my old wheel nuts, so he should have 4 spare...

ok apparently what i need are some tuning nuts....
managed to find a couple of places that sell em.... but no way can i get them before the weekend.... bummer

im gonna hazzard a guess i can get some at japfest.... if not wolfie has a set of 4 standard nuts which would do till i can get them....

so is it gonna be possible for me (and practicle) to change all 4 wheels at jap fest ???

Shouldnt be a problem. Depends on your tyres tho - are they already equipped with tyres?

We can help you mate.
