Keep in mind that the lug nuts for the TR6 are an unusual shape in 
that they have a groove cut into them which takes a split plastic 
washer which in turn holds the hub covers in place.  If you simply 
wish to hold the wheels in place or are not using the original 
wheels, any nuts of the correct size should be fine.

Mine were rusty so I bought some replacements, but the chrome was 
second rate and they were the incorrect shape and the plastic washers 
would not fit.  I had the original nuts rechromed which cost less 
than the new nuts.
