Firstly they look so good. my motor is red, and with them on they remind me so much of old school Ford. I'm so in love!
I was actually after the diamond cut hard versions but I'm glad I found these as I think the MK7 is to curvy for the sharper straight lines of the hard version. (is that the right name?!)
Anyway, I'm almost 100% convinced the tapered head of my original ford nuts is too big for these wheels, they were meant for the street pack 17"s I already had and I'm guessing for every modern Ford... My question is, in the good old days were there different stock nuts used?
I have some narrow nuts (only 4) and they look like they reach furthur to the hub when screwing them all the way on. However the heads on these are almost too narrow and seem to small at the tip.
I fear I'm struggling to get my point accross here, I hope someone understands and feel free to explain on my behalf.
I am desperate for some locking bolts for the centre caps as well, they've come with bolts with flat head access, as a result I've temporarily removed them for safe keeping. Can you guys link me up some suitable replacements to at least deter the opportunist scumbag. At the moment any idiot with a set of house keys could have these away...
I will post pics when i get the caps on, they look kinda rough without them. So the quicker you guys help the sooner you will see the sexiness of these wheels on my car
Thanks in advance!!
