Anyone got a spare wheel nut(s) for a '94 Z28 with the stock wheels?
I had the front wheels balanced on tuesday and it appears that at some point some numpty has chissled off the puzzle nut instead of using the adapter . They managed to free it eventually and balance the wheel but the nut's no good now...
So, i got myself a nice new set from Rock Auto which arrived today and it seems i've managed to order the wrong one's Thing is, it said 'STD Mag' and so i assumed they would be the right ones for a Z28 with standard mag wheels. Not that simple! I also had to cut open the packaging to fit them on the car so i don't know if they'd accept a return. Plus the postage was £17!
So, if anyone has a nut spare (It's the one with the tapered seat) or you're interested in a set of brand new puzzle nuts (Sleeve type, make me an offer!) please let me know...

did you get this sorted? i might have a spare from my 99 z28. send me an email maudyz28[at]gmail.com

Hi im probably a bit late but did you get sorted for your nuts (oooo matron ) ?? second question will a nut off 89 alloys fit your studs/ alloys . If the answer is no then yes come back to me i might be able to help,sorry for the delay in replying but ive been working MY nuts off (parden the pun ) to get my car back on the road only temp for a few local shows, i also help out at the shows so i had to take the 89 all though repairs only in primer Cheers Neil

No, i've still got a nut missing
I don't know if '89 nuts will fit? I know the pcd is different but as for the threads and the taper... Luke is going to check to see if he has one but it'll be off a '98 so i'm not sure if that'll fit my alloys either. I found a place in the States where i can purchase single ones but i haven't got a postage quote back from them yet.
Here's what my nuts look like

I think i should see a Doctor.

Once again, try Mister Tee's Nut emporium.

Thanks Starsky, i'll give them a ring in the morning.

Edit: Luke thinks he's got the right one, so fingers crossed

All sorted now! Luke (Maudy Z28) sent me a spare he had and it fits perfectly.
Cheers Luke

Hi glad to here you got sorted ,did you find out if the 89 nut would fit ? if so they are the same thread as a 99ford mondeo thats what my lock nuts are off same taper also Cheers Neil

I haven't checked on the 89 nuts yet. Interesting to hear about the Mondeo nuts though.
If anyone's interested in the puzzle nuts make me an offer. They stand me at about £33 and i've no use for them!
