Stud bolts and "Classic" 18"/19" rims?

[#84]

Do anyone use the standard Evora "Classic" rims with stud bolts?

It seems like all coned M12 nuts have a 19 mm hex grip. And a 17 mm hex socket barely fits in the screw wells (?).

Comments?

I fitted these to my NA about 18 months ago : https://www.gregsraceparts.com/collections/evora-wheels/products/motorsport-hardware-wheel-stud-kits

I also fitted spacers front and rear so that the wheels fill out the arches a bit more. I went for the tuner-lock style of nuts which come with a special adapter that takes the hex socket outside of the well in the wheel, in the same way that the 'key' for the standard bolts does, so I can't comment on how the corresponding coned nuts would be. My only regret is that I didn't do this sooner - it makes mounting and demounting the wheels so much easier and helps reduce the possibility of dropping the wheel onto the brake caliper and marking the paintwork on both.

Thanks @Alfa2Evora! 
 

That was the inspiration I needed. If it hadn’t been for the red calipers I would have been convinced that it had been my car 🙂

 

When I knew what to look for, I saw I can source the externa splined nuts locally. And for more frequent work on the race track I can use a set of steel nuts on the Braid Fullrace rims, which have more space.
