[Mk2] [NA] Wheel nuts - it ought to be easy.
In need of new wheel nuts to fit my new wheels as the standard MR2 nuts are too large in diameter and the new wheels required redius seat nuts. I assumed this would take 5 minutes on ebay to find... as it turns out not many people like to make M12x1.5 nuts with a radius seat. Anyone had similar experience? OR even better, anyone know where i can find a set? Thanks in advance

You're sure you don't just need conical nuts? Very common and I'd say 99% of them will fit 99% of aftermarket alloys.

I considered that but i cant be sure because the mating face of the wheel matches the profile of a radius seat nut. WedsSport SA-90's if that helps anyone advise me.

If it's just a set of standard aftermarket wheel nuts you need, I have a set of brand new ones here

There's a set of SA-90s on driftworks. Ask the seller.

You can get ones like this on ebay but the ones I needed for mine required the flare of the nut to be a bit higher than midway up so i needed to have some milled down to suit, are yours like that?

Like these ones?
I have only seen them in the USA or Japan though. The cheapest full set i found was £70 + Delivery + Government robbing taxes
