    Here's a nutty question...

    ... lug nuts, that is.

    Anyone know where to source black, closed-end wheel, super-simple nuts in 12x1.5, maybe 35-45mm long in a standard, say 21mm hex (is that even what the stock Miata wrench is?)? I've seen a few M2-1028 wheel images depicting what I'm trying to describe, like so:

    M21028 Wheel.jpg

    Rev9 now sells Project Kics Kyokyugen, in 42mm, they might be just right... except they're the weird Heptagon shape that requires a special security hex to remove them. Maybe not a bad thing.

    Thanks all!

    Perhaps Rays Engineering Dura-Nuts?

    Thanks Steve! At first search, those didn't look right. Upon further inspection, they appear to tick all the boxes!

    I believe Goodwin racing has new lug nuts similar to those.

    Oh, those Goodwin Racing ones might be a bit closer to the look your searching for.
