    Default Source for lug nuts

    Any body have a source for lug nuts? Looking to have a spare left and right hand. Contacted Rilltech and they want $95 each ... any other options?

    Thanks

    You have a Speads right? If your wheel nuts are like what my Speads DSR had, Rilltech might be about your only option. The ones my DSR used were one piece with the conical centering piece made into the part. Mine were also metric and one side was reverse thread. I was assuming center lock wheels.

    Have you checked www.prestigewheel.com? The may not have them, but know where to get them. You will need all the dimensions, thread pitch, cone angle, grip length, etc.

    $95.00 for a center-lock nut is more than reasonable. Support your local supplier.

    That price may be reasonable I just had nothing else to compare it to other than the price of lugs for my past cars ( which were like $4 each ) but that's comparing apples to oranges.

    They are definitely not local but seeing how they seem to be the only supplier I guess you could call them my local supplier! lol

    Are you talking about "lug nuts" or a center-lock wheel nut? How many per wheel? I assumed a single wheel nut as I have never heard of "lug nuts" being handed.
