Scorpio alloys

Had a set for ages . decided to stick them on, and found the nut seems to want to pull through the hole, like if you keep tightening it would go right through (if you can picture it) I know you get radius or tapered inserts. But from where? Any help please. Rick

Hi, I have fitted these to my van. It sounds like you do not have the cones fitted, in that case I would NOT drive the van. What you need is a set of cones for each wheel nut and the right nut radius. The bloke who is very good for this is fireturk he is on the site so you could do a search and send him a pm, or he is also selling these on the flea bay.

Here's on older version of the Scorpio wheel as mounted on a Syncro back in 2001. Needed longer studs/bolts with ballseats on this one.
