Wheel nuts

[Dan@Greenlight]

Just bought a set of Turini Speedline 16"

Could anybody link me to a set of nuts that I would use, I guess I can just put my standard 172 bolts in but I would like some new coloured ones.


Are they called a D1 fitment or something?

Sorry I know this is a very newbie thread...

Have you got a stud kit then? As you've mentioned about buying nuts to replace your bolts?

O dear, no I haven't, just googled that as well, so I take it I will need a stud kit and then the bolts?

You will need to fit studs into the hub if you wanted to run with nuts, or just get TPI polarized bolts.

The size is M12x1.5 (1.25 is jap stuff mostly)

Ok cool, thanks for the help.

Something like this? Just a straight swap?

Basically your clio will have bolts that go into the hub and tighten the wheel on. You could change like for like with TPI polarized bolts as they'll be a straight swap and will be oily coloured. The size bolts will will need will be standard length which is M12 x 1.5 x 26mm thread length as shown here:

If you are wanting to have nuts then you will need to replace the bolts with studs. These will have to be locktighted into the hub so they are a permanent fixture. You can then use nuts to tighten the wheels up as seen here:

Hopefully that helps
