As anything can be answered on here...Land rover wheel nuts?
Does anybody know if you can get extra long/double length land rover steel wheel nuts?

Never seen such a thing, why not wind a pair of nuts over a spare stud and weld them together?

Just curious, but why would you need double length wheel nuts?

You can get alloy one that are a bit longer than the standard.
Scot's do it better in Kilts.

If you really mean nuts as opposed to "bolts" I'm interested why too?

zeus engineering sell longer bolts - usually needed to fit fitting alloys or Wolf rims to series vehicles.
longer nut makes the mind boggle as to why?

NO, NO, NO! Try it on some scrap nuts and bolts and see if the distortion lets you get them apart! Also, if this is really to hold wheels on, I doubt
your insurance company would approve?

the whole reason behind it is that i have a set of alloys
these wheels that
take a steel wheel nut BUT the hole they sit in is so tight to the edge of the nut you cant a socket on it
This is what the wheel nut should be like

The wheel has the same taper as the steel wheel nut, i can get the nuts from the states i think, i just wondered if there was an easy solution in the

You can buy extension nuts but not sure if your studs are metric. If they are older 9/16 thread you
could try these guys
