Wheel Nuts

[Aussie260z]

Anyone know where i could get a set of (i think) 280zx wheel nuts in Australia,

I have a set of 280zx factory mags - kinda look like a snow-flake from memory, they have a weird nut, they have a mushroom head and sink into the mag............

Are you talking about the Factory 280zx 6 spoke ones. I got wheel nuts 2nd hand from AllZparts. Cost $7-8 each, plus shipping, which wasn't much. Nissan wants $25 each for them, and they have to order in from Japan. Ridiculous!!

[Aussie260z]

Thats the ones, my local nissan bloke said $29/each!

Even at $7-8 each its not worth it for me, i just have a spare set floating around with 215/65-14 tyres and lots of tread that i thought id whack on untill i figured out which wheels i was going to go with,

But paying $50 odd dollars for wheel nuts, no way!!!

[speedyblue]

Yep, know the feeling. Even the 2nd hand option is pricey. Lucky for me I only needed a few, but still cost a bit.

If you were closer, I'd send you some. I must have about 20-25 of those. Would they be worth the cost of shipping from the US?

$50 for lugnuts isn't that bad really

U Pull it here has them normally they are the same lugnut as what comes on pulsar/holden astra mag wheels, and they charge $1 each I think?

[Aussie260z]

Z kid, you sure they are the same nut???

sblake01, I dont know about shipping from the USA? i guess it would be on weight and how long i could wait to get them that would determine the price of sending them (ie..........express air-mail probably wouldnt be cheap), but i bet it would end up being about the same price as if i just went and bought them 2nd hand from a Nissan/Datsun Wrecker locally,
