Leadership Team Garry7 Posted May 3, 2013 Leadership Team Share Posted May 3, 2013 Do NOT under any circumstances buy the ones from CC Parts - they are made of chocolate or similar!! How do I know....................................bought a set, fitted and torqued up correctly, then tried to get them off to clean the wheels and the locking key ripped the bolt head keyed bit right off. Had to get CC to remove them, they damaged a wheel in the process and very kindly replaced it with a new one FOC. So, ended well but could have done without it.

David aka Blue7 Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Quoting Belper Cat: Can anyone tell me which ones to buy? Do I just get a set of Ford ones? Its for an 05 car btw thanks DJ I bought the Evo Mk V lock nuts part no. BGO/E for my 2008 CSR. As said above, don't buy the CC ones, their Mountney nuts are really quite useless. The cap removal tool does not work and the removal plunger snapped on first attempt to use it (both plastic). Furthermore, I reckon it would be quite easy to force a smaller size socket over the nut to remove it. I contacted Julian Maddison at Evo Automotive for advice about the correct nuts Julian Maddison Tel 01908 64 65 66 Fax 01908 64 63 62 email Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stationary M25 Traveller Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I got a set of five McGard (one for spare too) from Halfords. Can probably find the model number if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
