Hi guys,

Can anyone tell me the spline socket size for an S2 wheel nut? I need to shift a well stuck nut so need something tougher than the soft one supplied.

Many thanks

Andy

Haven't got a clue I'm afraid.

Dunno - but I've posted on the BBS technical forum, so hopefully someone will come up with something :)

...and welcome along from me too!

Someone replied on the BBS to say:

"Bad news, you might get the locknut off with a torx, but the normal ones are a 13mm splined socket. Which doesn't exist! I had to borrow one off Chris Neils (Lotus dealer)."

Strange, I've just noticed Ed posted on seloc with the same problem!
