Wheel nut caps

[normg]

Hi All. Does anyone know if it is possible to get red coloured wheel nut caps (including one for the lock nut) to fit a Cali wheel. Can't seem to find anything about them on here.

Many thanks
Norm

I used coloured plasti-dip to change some in the past. The good thing about that is you can peel it off in the future.

Thanks for that Loz.

do a search on amazon 'wheel nut covers red' I have them and they are really good, just popped some copper grease on the nuts before the caps where fitted.......

Thanks for that Toot-Toot. Have tried Amazon but difficulty finding one to fit the security nut. Who did you purchase from?

I bought the 19mm ones from Amazon and they fitted over the security nuts...... my wheels, security nuts etc are all original from new if that makes a difference? have yours been changed?

Mine are originals too. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01CZP1VAU/?tag=eliteelect-21.
When I queried if these would fit the security nut was advised they wouldn't.

I still have the original packing at home - so tonight after work I will upload details for you

you should be able to see (if my uploads have worked) the original wheel sporting the red nut covers and some identical nut covers in 17mm (to small 19 mm is the right size)

 

[normg]

Many thanks for that. Will start searching again.

Hi Toot-Toot I am now confused. E-mailed the sole UK distributor for TPI asking 'will the 19mm wheel nut cover fit the security nut on a VW California wheel'. The response from the TPI brand manager was 'No, the covers will only fit over the standard hex not the locks'. How did yours manage to fit the security nut?
