problem with ssr integral alloys -> bolt holes too tight

Post by burn »

Hey guys,

I hope anyone can help me solving my problem.

A friend gave me his old alloys, a set of 16" SSR Integral (16x7 and 16x8).

The problem is that they have a very tight bolt hole.. I cannot fit my wheelnuts. I checked that back at ebay's but there are only the "slimline" wheelnuts.

Can someone recommend these wheelnuts with the "hex" adaptor? Or does sb have a recommendation for me?

Since I've had some bad experiences with alloy wheel nuts and wheel spacers I regard this with suspicion...

:clown:

Cheers
