I have about 6 washers for my nuts on my wheels, there mags. I have been to a few bolt places and supercheap and bridgstone. No one is able to get some. Will i have to go custom? There 25mm in diameter and 3-4 mil thick.

I used to work as a tyre fitter and we always had bags of them sitting around the shed. Its been a few years but i dont think it could have changed that much. If you had to get them to order them in, dragway or one of those places that do the older style rims should have them.

Dragway is a type of older wheel, like Cheviot.

Speco and Nice Products both sell 2.5mm x 17.5mm ID (25mm OD) wheel washers, any tyre shop should be able to get them in. Heck even Autobarn/Repco can get them.

Yeh sorry I was a bit smashed when i put that message up :oops: , any place that sells wheel nuts should have them. Tyre shops or your local car parts stores.

Supercheap stores are staffed by a bunch of slack-jawed r-tards. I'm surprised Repco were no help considering most stores stock a big panel of wheels nuts & replacement studs.

the guy i keep getting sells me the wrong things, like a battery that was way to tall, kepted shorting out on the bonnet, and they sed no returns because it has lil marks on the things the battery terminals connect to.
