What locking wheel nuts do I need for 15" OZ Superturismos WRC's (not that that makes any difference I don't think - the WRC part, lol).

These wheels;

Details;

# Size: 15x6.5
# Offset: 37mm
# Backspacing: 5.23"
# Bolt Pattern:
# Rec. Tire Size: 185/60-15

Am really looking for a definite answer on this, as it's not something I want to skimp on, want..and kinda need(:P), to get the thread length, overall length, and tapered (60 degrees is the only one I can find if it is tapered), or flat (OEM Citroen Wheels only?) Need a washer?

Also, I can't find any 33mm thread length bolts as per this guide;

http://www.saxperience.com/forum/showthread.php?t=74552&highlight=locking+wheel+bolts

Most are a couple mil more.

What I've got in mind I think is - M12 x 1.25, 60 degree taper, 19 mil hex, and closest I can find is 35mil thread length.. And obviously, I'll need a full set of these, not just the locking ones.

Wish there was a calculator for this.

Cheers!

Oh shit, yeah man, you've got the same wheels as me ! (on the same car!)

You couldn't do me a HUGE favour and measure the thread length, and overall length?

Love you forever? :D.

Better to be to long than to short right? (not spacer long, but you know what I mean).
