thanks for that

wheels bought just need new locking wheel nuts.can i just ask if the t25 has nuts on the back wheels and bolts on front.i ask this because my van has nuts on front and back. (T25 caravelle 1987
automatic 1.9 water)

Fronts would have been bolts originally, but quite common to be converted to studs if different wheels have been fitted, especially if spacers used.

thanks. hope i dont have to bother you again....

any idea where i can get some center caps (black)

pepperpots fitted but looks like someone fitted longer studs as i have had to leave spacers on which were on with old alloys will this be ok.

Do you mean that you are using closed nuts and they won't tighten down on the wheel if spacers not fitted? Can't see a problem with using spacers if tyres are clearing wheel arches etc. other option is to use open nuts, or shorten the studs.

yes used closed nuts and a spacer on back and that ok but front has less stud showing so was thinking of changing studs to standard lenght ones

if i go back to bolts on front what lenght bolts do i need or has anyone got a part number...

Just checked one of mine, 35mm thread length, taper seat.
