I also have spare nuts and pins if you don't get sorted above. Alloy and steels wheel nuts are both the same, its only the 200's had the chrome nuts for the Virgo's as far as I am aware

If you're after open-end wheel nuts Mark, these work well :
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/20-X-M12-...C/183511003484 Don't panic that it says Honda etc - they're the same nuts! If you don't need all 20, there's also a listing for just 16 of the wee beasties : https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/16-X-M12-...7/172870929834 There are also black ones listed, other multiples of 4 and so on.

Decades ago, before front wheel drive was so prevalent, there was system for dynamic balancing of the front wheels whilst still fitted to the car. This method factored in any imbalance of the brake drum/disc and hub etc. IIRC, the wheel was jacked up, sensors were placed on the suspension, a trolley was located beneath the wheel which was spun up by a wheel within the trolley and a result displayed on display on the trolley, then weights added as required. Having gone to this bother, if the wheel was subsequently removed then it must be replaced in the same position relative to the hub etc. or the whole thing could be out of balance again.
