You need a 60 degree taper nut.

You may also need longer wheel studs.

Are there different tapers for diff wheels?

I'm asking cause I brought a set of group a longer nuts, the ones when you can put them with standard length studs and to get them tight they kinda cut into the inserts, so thinking if I have the wrong ones...

Group a nuts are totally different and require a different stud? They are a bigger thread IIRC.

got the wheels on now , had to use 3mm spacers on the front to clear the coilover , but I have ordered some extended studs too so the nuts have more stud to go on , so hopefully they should be here soon , also I will be needing some wider tyres as I thought I could maybe get away with the 215 .... yea I am not into the euro look things so I will need some 235s

Be aware not a diy weekend jobby

removal and the pros and cons

air gun needed and steel washers for the pull

extended studs are a bastard to fit
