Lock nuts
New car just puchased, well 56 Volvo V50 S D (e4) Estate, but alloys with no locking wheel nuts. Anybody have any spares before I hit Ebay/Dealer.
Thanks |

First up redbob51 welcome to the site.
Looking at your other posts it looks like either your dealer or the last owner removed everything they could from the car. |

Locking wheel nuts are more bother than they're worth anyway.

There are new italian locking nuts now from your dealer a much better design . The wavy pattern is around the edge of the nut, so much stronger and they have a chrome dummy nut head which spins ... so undetectable unless you bend down and look closely ..
