Wheel nuts
I have finally found some original Haflinger wheels, but I purchased my Haf with alloy wheels and they use different wheel nuts. Has anyone found any alternative wheel nuts off some other vehicle that would be suitable? Original Haf wheel nuts are hard to find over here!

Re: Wheel nuts
I have relented and ordered new ones from Scotland.
Re: Wheel nuts
I must admit, I would rather have bought new ones that tried to use second hand ones as the flats are likely to have been burred by previous owners and the threads inside might no longer be the correct shape to grip the studs.
Still, if they were the only ones you could get hold of, then careful scrutiny should ensue!

Re: Wheel nuts
I already have approx 30 wheelnuts to choose from!! My 60's rolling chassis has 2 per wheel, my latest (immobile) '74 model has a full set of 16, plus I have six spares. With another 10 used wheel nuts, I'm sure I could sort out the best 16 for my road-going Haf !!! LOL LOL
