Does anyone know of a supplier of Contessa wheel nuts? The type with the hex head, then taper, then cylindrical part that goes into the rim itself. I think they should have washers too.


My in laws need a full set of new ones.

the mini shops usually stock them, cos there aren't any wheels that use the same nuts - they're expensive too :(

You can get them at Padstow but they will cost you $5 each :shock: , I just replace a few of my older ones. They included washers for no extra charge! :roll:

that's the response my in laws were getting. They could either have some made, or get their ones rechromed. Buying new would be so much easier.

I tried all the local tyre places (including bob's and beau's) and the local auto parts places and nobody had them so I had to pay the big money but how else are you going to hold you wheels on..... :roll:

If you do find them anywhere cheaper let us all know! :D :D

I bought 2 sets last year, at Auto City Tyre & Wheel in Seven Hills. He had to get them in, should still be available if ROH are still in business making wheels... :wink:
Note the chrome on them is pretty thin, they rust easy.

:idea: Maybe I should make some decent ones- anybody got any hex 304 S/S bar cheap?

Maybe when I get some spare time... (ie. notime soon!) :lol:

Anton, ring Jim Lofthouse at Auto City- 9624 7545 and ask him.
No they are not cheap, I think last set of 16 was $70 or so. :wink:
