    Anyone know of any?

    Need to get a set of wheel nuts and not sure that Halfords would have what I need.

    Cheers

    They might - except I don't really know what I want (wierd as that may sound).

    Discovered that the MG we bought recently has the strangest wheel nut setup I've come across yet - a sort of aluminium shroud over the regular nut. Had to literally hammer a socket over them to get a grip so want to replace with just a regular nut - but I don't know the specific pitch of them. Three of the nuts on the passenger side were missing the covers and while most nuts are 17 or 19mm I'm pretty certain that these are an 18mm nut. Lost a 17mm socket on one that just refused to move so now have only 3 nuts on each front wheel.

    Hmmm - just thinking now that maybe I should try one of the Subaru nuts on it to see if they thread properly?

    The MF in the Castletroy Shopping Centre is open on Sundays but I'm not sure they would have what you need. Worth a shot though.

    You need a scrapyard tbh, motor factors don't stock that sort of stuff usually
