Ehh, I dunno. By calculation I should only be like 8mm further out at the front than Bennoz, who is fairly flush at the front, and 13mm at the rear. I think the poke was exaggerated by the car still being jacked up. But I guess we'll find out when they're actually mounted.

Is the idea to have one different lock nut, and four regular, or all of them being the same?

If you want to make them harder to steal you would have 5 lock nuts per wheel. :lol:

Usually you have 4 regular wheel nuts per wheel and a set of 4 lock nuts, one per rim, which are the same as each other lock nut.

Also, did it take us 25 pages to choose a set of rims and tyres? So are we planning to have lock nuts sorted by about page 30 or so? :lol:

Dammit.

I'd say I should be safe enough, but then again who knows, hah. Wonder if I can ask insurance to cover these...

Ah! That's what I was saying.

And no. As you can see, other things may have happened... just not much. I have no idea how it's ended up being this many pages.

Meanwhile, you old people are no help at all. I'm pretty sure I've said that once before as well. :lol:

In other news, insurance called me this morning regarding the reimbursement as apparently nothing had been done. :x I am considering leaving a complaint regarding that... although now I don't know whether it was another part of the process.

Just buy all the same nuts that need a key ;)
Buy an extra key when u do aswell. Keep one in the glovebox. Other one at home.
Because nothing is faster than a p plater in a commodore.....
except maybe a p plater on a unicorn
