Actually Jeff, the lug nut for the wire wheels is only different from the standard steel wheels, in that it is beveled on both sides and/or shorter than a standard steel wheel nut (the kind used unde

for what it's worth, i have a 1972 mkIV with steel wheels. my lugnuts are the chrome caped nuts and an 11/16" socket fits snug on the outside. i also know that the lug thread size is 3/8-24. now, if

Barry, I believe you are mistaken in your description of the wire wheel adaptor nuts. I have a set of wires that came off of a 69 Spitfire that were completely original, and they had never been off o

** Nope John, with due respect, I beg to differ. Maybe the nuts you are referring to are for the BOLT on wire wheels. I could see where these might be different (I have never actually seen a set) Th

The consensus appears to be that all the bolts are 11/16". My standard bolts are this diameter and the ones I received from VB are identical to them. No difference whatsoever. Same dimensions in ever

Jeff, you might be wrong about needing a different size lug nut for the wire wheel adapters. I talked about this with Nigel of Spitbits and I believe at that time we concluded that the lug nuts are t

Barry, I was referring to the knock off wire wheels. I double checked the set of original nuts that I have, and they are slightly longer, and only have one taper. I compared them to the NOS early ste

This just keeps getting curiouser and curiouser... In my Bentley Spitfire shop manual it shows a photo of the hub adapter and the nuts that are on it aren't beveled on both sides. The outside face is

FWIW, John's experience matches mine - the nuts I have holding my WW adaptors are slightly longer than those used on disc wheels, and only one end is beveled. Big TRs use a double-beveled nut to hol
