And Dave already had the correct spigot rings fitted :wink:

Same problem with the Mazda wheel nuts, swapped for aftermarket mushroom shaped nuts to cure the wheel shake.

Yeah I think I need to get the nuts changed as the spigots (correct size lol) have been fitted but I'm still getting that shake. I'll need to get it along to an alloy wheel place because I've no idea what nuts to use other than the fact that they should be 21mm #-o

Steviebongo in Glasgow who now sadly is selling his Bongo for family reasons was selling wheel chromium wheel nuts not long ago (I bought some off him at the Scottish Bash). I suggest that you get in touch with him if you can and see if he has any left if they are suitable.

I can PM you his mobile number if you need it.
