tc350z Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Hey guys/gals, I aquired a set of Rota GTR's today and tried to use my standard wheel nuts but are to big so obviously I'll need a set of new shiny ones now im thinking of those D1 Spec thingys kicking about on ebay... but what size, and long or short? does that apply to if you have spacers? anyways help would be much appreciated! Wheel size 5x114.3 Staggered so, Fronts 18x8.5 et35 Rears 18x9.5 et35 Thanks, Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 if it was me i'd use these http://www.driftworks.com/shop/high-str ... kages.html makes all 5 nuts a locking wheel nut. steel so no risk of it shearing and leaving a half ripped nut stuck on your wheel.

Dblock Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Can you use internal drive nuts with impact guns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docwra Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Not advised. Internals are a much better bet all round though IMO, less likely to round off and even if they split you can usually still get them off RT is bang on the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonst205 Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 Cheers for that link, the DW internal drives look great. The Rays wheels have quite tight recesses for external drives, I know I have chipped mine in a cpl of places despite being extremely careful.

As mentioned in a previous post a few days ago. He states he is UK supplier but infact he employees a Chinese Import company and resides in Singapore. He sold me some fake Rays and was/is under investigation from Rays UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
