As title says,

Genuine rays duralium anodized locking wheel nuts. 20 in a pack, 4 locking ( 1 for each wheel ) , 16 ordinary. The locking wheelnuts look like the other nuts, but are actually heptagonal sided so a standard socket wont fit, so no thieving scum will get your gorgeous rims Smile

I was considering trading/importing jdm parts however due to recent financial situations / exchange rate, i wont be continuing down this route.

I have 3 colours available ( red , blue , black ) but only 2 of each colour ( in honda fitment m12x1.5 ) so 6 all together.
These wheel nuts are so light you can hardly feel them in your hand !!!


How does £95 paypalled + posted in the uk each. Bare in mind they are in the uk not like a lot of ebay sellers in japan / hong kong etc.

Mods : Id put this in the trade section, but i only have a few packs and wont be getting anymore, so its not really trading ? Mods please advise if not ok ?

Im sure that everyone who has read this thread is saying in their head " good for you slipcivic, thanks for the input !! :clap::nice:"

10,000 yen = around £77 ( dont use xe.com's interbank rate , use your bank or paypal to get the proper bank to bank conversion rate )

Now add postage from japan.
and import tax.
Bank / paypal fees?
:angry2:

Update :

pm's replied.

1 set of red, 1 set of blue, 2 sets of black remain!
 
G/L with sale , to bad there not extended lugs
one thing about the rays is the red can fade and turn pink i know it happend to me.

Aye, regarding extended nuts etc i did plan on importing many nuts, wheels , intakes , cams etc etc but at the current exchange , to me, it isnt really worth it at the mo ?

Thanks for the g/l 's :)

something i have not checked yet !
if they use the same nuts as other factory hondas, i would say no.

These nuts are designed for aftermarket wheels.

However perhaps i could send a nut out to you to check if you really wanted, but im sure that someone will confirm ?

Hey.. I CAN confirm they fit standard wheels as I have a black set on my "Time Attack Style" standard Ek9 Alloys.. Ohh and they are seriously light, lol feel like plastic !!!

Cheers, Andy
 
Dude, they are for aftermarket wheels only.
Aftermarket wheels have tapered seating. OEM wheels have acorn seating.
Seating = where the nut meets the wheel.
Dont listen to Greeny.
 
Actually it is good for me, got free postage from Japan and it arrived 2 days later.

So if you wanna be a cock go ahead.

dude theres no need for that, you cant knock his price either as unit-8 sell them at almost the same price.

Lol I have them fitted to my stock OEM Wheels, I got them from Unit-8... They seem to go on no problem, never had any issues and they torque up all the way... Lol mayb my wheels arnt on properly !!! :nerv:
 
haha i got owned !

Slipcivic, apologies to you then, however i thought with the " mad " shaking head smiley thing, you thought i was ripping people off or something!

Still 10,000 yen ( which is actually a great price posted btw ) but then + any import tax, would probably start adding up to a similar price. Unless they were marked as a gift / similar, but thats illegal ?

btw :
bon , about the taper.... thats what i thought too. Perhaps the above guys have wound them in and torque them until metal started chewing metal * covers eyes with hands *.
Perhaps they have got a different type with the correct " round " taper for oem wheels?
 
Haribo, they may of damaged the wheel / nut or simply not torque up correctly ( even though they feel torqued )
 
Haribo, they fit but its not proper fitment...
