    Anybody had anyluck with these...

    Sorry to resurect this thread but I have exactly the same wheels ith the same problem, snaped two nuts
    Got some RRC ones but they are far to big and not enough meat on the rim to bore them out to fit
    So if anybody knows where some can be got I would be greatful as my '85 V8 is just sitting in the drive now, looking all sorry for its self...
    I will have to but a torque wrench to avoid this in the future...

    Ring Mr Mag in Morley .... Have a look at the back of the mag & it should say "Made in Australia" ... They were made by "Performance" and the mag is a "Cheviot" ...

    Yeah , I have a set of special offset 15 x 8 Cheviot Turbines made by Aunger , ex Adekaide . The nuts are specials , use 15/16 socket and special washer to locate in rims .
    Globe Products was once an independent manufacturer but is now part of CSA Alloy Wheels, and renamed Globe Alloy Wheels. Delta Wheels and Mullins Wheels are also part of the one group, all confusingly based at 25 Cheviot Rd, Salisbury. Cheviot Wheels (not to be confused with the road of the same name) and ROH Wheels Australia are part of the same group (as was once the famous Aunger Alloy Wheels) located at 28 Sheffield St, Woodville North. The 'Aunger Carcraft Company' in Queensland - formed from 'Aunger Plastics' of South Australia - is now completely divorced from the alloy wheel market, but still carries that famous oval logo for it's range of car accessories. So might be hard to track down !!!

    Thank you for the help guys will get on to the Performance wheel guy next week and have also sent a mail to wheelsaustralia.
    So with a bit of luck some body should have a set of even a few.
    These are only stop gap wheels am looking to fit a set of Mac5's once i get the funds together.

    the important message bit, its just something that got copied in from their website.

    They were pretty good at knowing where to get odd nuts and studs from .
