Now purchased the Studs. Although advised that you can grind off after market studs to fit the triumph Chamfer, I have decided to go for the ones from Jigsaw. a bit more expensive but hopefully worth it. Rimmer no longer sell the extended 7/16 wheel studs Aidan

Hi again I am not sure if 0.046" is important, but just to let you know I purchased some nuts from Rimmers in the end. I have measured the sleeves with a micrometer screw gauge which gave a measurement if 0.671" diameter. 5/8" mentioned above is 0.625". I'm not sure if that makes a difference but I thought it best that I mentioned it Regards Aidan

Hi Pete From other comments and my own thought I think the 45 mm studs should be right although again I am having difficulty finding tapered or domed headed ones My calculations are to add the 10 mm length to cover the spacer depth and although the alloy is obviously thicker than the standard wheel, the nuts have a half inch sleeve which will compensate for that Aidan

After a long search, it would seem that these nuts are too specialist to get anywhere but a triumph specialist. I have purchased from Rimmers in the end as they seem to be the cheapest. I have gone for the Steel alternatives as advised

Hi Thanks I have added a question on to the forum Found this on Ebay They look and are described right What do you think? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CLASSIC-FORD-and-other-Cars-7-16-UNF-16-WHEEL-NUTS-5-8-SLEEVE-ALLOYS-/380994713600?ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:GB:1123

Hi, ANyone know where to buy 7/16" Steel wheel nuts with a 13mm Sleeve for the above? Rimmers is very expensive and I have tried quite a few other suppliers but with no luck - They all have a 5/8" sleeve and would have to double up on washers which I don't think is a great idea! Thx

Hi - Information from Andy Cook on this subject (Thank you Andy) and others for anyone thinking of doing the same thing Required equipment to fit Nuts - 7/16" UNF thread with a 5/8" sleeve, and a 0.5" sleeve length (5/8" will possibly fit) X 16 in Steel please not alloy Studs 7/16" UNF 43mm in length Spacers for a PCD of 95.25 mm, 2 @ 5mm+ depth and two @ 10mm depth Grateful if someone with first hand experience could confirm the above Regards Aidan

Hi All, I’m looking for some help in regard to the above subject. I have already discussed this with Pete Lewis, and thanks for the information Pete, but I am trying to find someone who has actually fitted these I have looked at various sites in regard to the spaces required in order to get these wheels to fit. Obviously the smalller the spacer, the better it is for the wheel bearings! I have found various suggestions ranging from 6mm to 25 mm. The Wheel inset difference is 25mm (1 inch) but this is also the wheel depth size difference (4.5J to 5.5J) so now I am a little confused to be honest Any advice from anyone whos fitted these wheels would be gratefully appreciated Regards Aidan
