    Indespension should have these in stock...Dublin & Limerick depots as well as various stockists around the country. google them and give them a ring to find out if they have a stockist near you.
    If you're certain that they are Mini nuts have a look on the irishminis.ie forum for a guy called minis24/7. He's up around Sligo but will post nationwide.

    Have you tried Parcel Motel for the postage.
    Only €3.50 wben u register. Then pick your nuts up in your local Topaz garage.

    Mini wheel nuts are 3/8" unf. Indespension should have these (part no. is WR020, or WRAP020 for a pack of four).
    If they had these in Indespension in limerick and they didn't fit your trailer hubs then you don't have Mini wheel nuts.

    Also www.ukclassicparts.com will do 8 of these for around £14 sterling inc. postage.

    Went in with one of the worn nuts, was met buy a guy who exclaimed (without looking at the nut) that they dont have them and that there would be a slight difference, dismissive to say the least, but he sounded like he was talking from experience......I'll go back in.......tnx

    Also don't pay any attention to the spanner size needed for these....9/16" would be the usual, but some nuts use a 17mm spanner while others take an 18mm.
    If you have no luck give me a PM....I have a couple of Mini's here, and at least 1 trailer with the Indespension 3/8" nuts.
    At least you can confirm that it is mini nuts you need, rather than buying the wrong size online.
