Not entirely sure if this is the correct place to put this topic but here goes...

bought a set of d1 spec nuts off ebay official supplier and although the ebayer was quick and a good communicator the product is fairly crap!lol. 19 of the 20 nuts had threads,1 of them did not and although the manufacturer torque recommendation is 80lb/ft, I damaged 1 at only 55lb/ft. told supplier and they said they would replace 1 nut because of it not being tapped but if one stripped then thats tough
The nuts look good with the cough yellow cough wheels but I'm not impressed with the product. Just a word of warning to anyone buying these, be cautious.


Rant complete :D

I think these are made from Aluminium is that right?

IMO they have no place on a road car.
