As above, got all my code numbers stored, in case needed.
On me and me dads cars between us we have 11 sets, I'm a bit paranoid, never had a problem and always torque up to 75lbft when replacing wheels even on the lockers.
I suspect at some time some idiot has been at it with a fun gun, had a wheel held on with just 2 of these once for around 100 miles, someone had started to steal my wheels,
(DS OPTICS) and taken of the two normal nuts stopped at the lockers, only noticed as the loose ones were rattling around inside the centre cover, so they put this on after which is odd!!
