I have a set of 5 3spoke alloys. im after the spare wheel nut which screws down on the spare in the boot to hold it in place. does anyone have one?
I gather they are abit longer than the original 13" steel wheel ones
Thanks

Wasn't aware they were different lengths, it'll be the threaded part that's longer then?

I went from a 13" steel spare to a 14" steel and the original securing bolt fitted. That's what was confusing me.
Mine had 13" steel and now has a 15" alloy. The std nut thing fitted fine

I'm just about to throw one away...pm me.
There are 2 differant size's.
If you are using a alloy vauxhall spare you have to use the longer one as i did.
