ah now i understand the whole dealio...the 15mm size....hmm..no matching...hmm...put all locks to make them 17mm...(an option).. or have one different...... (does not sound good) but will work........

hmm.........
i need to ponder this.......i need to see if a 17 mm regular nut will work with wheels......then i could get a 17mm lock. and it would not look whaked.

hard to believe no one makes a 15mm lock....

good thing your local bring some test lugs by my dealership (68th/mcdowell) : and we can experiment ;)..food for thought

OK I want these wheels but need to sell my rial LeMans wheels first. I would sell them for $1,000 with tires. Need to be local in Phoenix area. PM if you'd like to buy them. Look at my SCOA gallery to see the wheels on the yellow car.

Chris, I have on order some locks from Lorinser and will let you know when they show up. I do not know if they have a 15mm head though. I do not think they will arrive for a few months though. I can do lugs and locks with 17mm head no problem. I have the stuff here to do it. We are open 8-5 weekdays and 9-noon Saturdays. Come on over and check or place out.

You get what you pay for. These wheels fit (no rubbing) and look so nice on a smart.
