Hi guys,

I just bought a set of 16" alloy wheels with new continental tyres for $450 from a guy who owns a 2014 honda civic 9th gen hatch vti s.

As you can see in the pic, the original wheel nuts from my vti is sticking out. I want to buy some new wheel nuts that doesn't stick out as much. what size should I get ?

Sorry for the large size of the picture. I haven't figure out how to make the pic smaller yet.

Thanks in advance.

The ones you currently have are the 'long' ones I'm guessing

And what you want are the 'short' OEM nuts.

Hope that helps

Thanks for checking. I will send you maccas by express post to sydney lol. It will take a few days but it should be fine because I have read that maccas are full of preservatives so it should still taste good lmao.
