I have Just picked up a set of Matt's Stainless Steel Wheel nuts.
As a Machinist with access to all types of CNC and manual Machines I can honestly say these are a Very Nicely Made Item.
For the Price he is asking for a set it was not worth my time and effort to make a set myself.
These Nuts are "THE NUTS" so if you need a set Contact Matt, you can't go wrong :D

Yeah I liked em so much I bought the 1st 2 sets of Contessas. :P
I could have got them CNC machined by my other mate down the road, but Matt already had a program set up.

You mean `galling'. :wink:
Put a smear of antiseize on the threads when you fit them.
