You could try Spring Coil it's just down the road from progressive footwear near makro. They do all sorts and if they can't they'll have someone that can

what finish are the hubs done in? anodised? i would have thought the R clips above would be more likely to scratch the finish when you are taking wheels on and off, but other than that they should work a treat.

The hubs are going to be hard anodised ...that's my only worry of scratching and the fact they should be stopped by the inner lip of the nut iNstead of the outer... Look good tho..

I will just stick with the original style mate cheers

Matt that r clip style is ace. Mine will be using the outside of the nut to sto it not the inner edge. Who makes that r clip style and how much?

that style would only work if the centre lock bit had a recess all the way around for the clip to sit in other wise it could rotate through 90 degrees & fall off .
stick with the original style if its good enough for a RS500 touring car then its good enough for any car .
