wheel nut size

[wuzerk]

I have bought a set of chrome wheel nut covers and find that they do not fit despite being stated to be suitable for the 75. My wheel nuts are 17mm across the flats but links for suitable caps say they are 19mm! Could someone confirm the correct size please.

17mm,i've bought the same & sent him an email informing him of his error in advertising them as for a 75.:cool:

Thankyou very much.

Did you get them from "car parts market"? If so,ask him for an exchange as i have done & see what happens.Still waiting for a reply:shrug:

Yes, same supplier, they have replied that they only sell 19mm covers so send then back for a refund. There is also 'Race Parts' on e bay who also sells 19mm caps as suitable for the 75s, I have put him right.

there are a few sellers on eBay which supply these bolt covers in 17mm,in both chrome and dark chrome.

depending on the wear you have on the bolts they provide a snug fit,if not which i found on a members car,i had to pad the covers out with a small amount of pvc tape..

Do not send back your wrong sized set of chrome wheel nut covers(19mm) as they are a perfect fit over the standard Rover Locking wheel nuts. Means you have a 100% coverage when you have bought the correct 17mm set.
