If you need 8, I'll supply you 8 mk2 chrome covered wheel nuts for a tenner posted!

Cheers Mark but found some yesterday at a breakers.

Thanks for the offer though

Love looking up these old threads for information, had a nightmare this morning changing a wheel with nut caps breaking off and tightened too much in my opinion by tyre shop, do you guys use a torque setting and if so what? If this had happened by the road I would of had to call AA so I'm going to change the lot to be safe

You say nut caps? Are these plastic covers? If so these should be removed before placing socket, that’s how it reads in your post, I may be wrong. Nuts are 110Nm.

I've never personally torqued them up properly(only by feel) but now I know the number I will. Don't know what the impact guns are set at the tyre shops use but I've never had to use all my strength to get one undone.
