    As above I am looking for wheel nuts like below but without the big washer piece as there is not much room on the alloys to allow the washer but I am especially looking for the way they flange into the alloy. The reason I need that bit is the wheel studs are quite small for some reason and yes I do not wish to change all the studs so I am just wondering if someone seen what I am looking for while browsing the webs?

    Theyre called Shank wheel nuts and I've only ever seen them on Toyotas BUT only when using Toyota wheels. If you are fitting aftermarket wheels on the car then you need to use the correct nuts for those wheels as shank nuts wont seat properly in ordinary wheels.

    If your wheel studs are too short then chances are the wheels are not the correct type for your car and you will not be able to fit them using shank wheel nuts...apart from anything else its not safe.
