Blaine Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 heya guys n gals I have some genuine rays locking nuts in blue I had shipped over from japan.. cost a arm and as leg for what they are just had my alloys refurbed and I have noticed that there is 1 nut missing.. looks as though it has fell out as the rest were quite loose is this a problem with these nuts? or just the garage who fitted my brakes (last people to take wheels off) not doing them up enough? also where do I go from here? do I buy a complete new set of these (if not faulty), a new set of blue ones? (another brand) or just get some steel mcguard ones from Halfords? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonic Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 You will most likely find that once the wheels were refurbed , you should of took the paint off from where the nuts sit , if not the nuts don't seat right and can come loose , top tip from Ed China Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaine Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 so taking the 1st layer of paint off is a good thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
