Thread: Toss the wheel lock nuts

Here's one of the nuts I ordered.

- Arrived very quickly from the UK.
- Production quality seems good from first impressions.
- Can't comment on the black coating durability.
but they are black inside and out, including the threads.

Haven't had a nut off the Defender so far. Didn't realize they have a washer.

Will get these all put on at the 10,000k service next week.

I've only seen these in bright finish, your black ones look powder coated.

Cheers for the info!
