Atiwe 'telephone' rims - what nuts? Pics?

[dAYTONA]

Hi Guys,

What type of nut is used on the Atiwe 'telephone' style rims.

I bought some rims, but without the nuts. They have large holes, sugesting the use of a nut that goes deep onto the thread/rim, but with a cone shaped washer... something like ford, but with a longer bit that goes inside the rim...

Can anyone provide me with a picture of such a nut?

Daytona,

For the rimms that I had on my car before I had these nuts that where round and fairly large, I suspect they would do pretty well for these atiwe rimms aswell.. Not sure what they are called, should get a picture of them but they are pretty common I think

I thought I remembered seeing a picture somwhere..


This is from Rikards post in the sale section.

Now I need to find some nuts like this...

Would some one have a better picture of one nut? So i can send it out to some companies if they have them?

This can help you at least as reference. They are not cheap IMHO....

nope, no help from that catalog.

I found some for about 1 euro each. Just need to make sure they
are the right ones.

Still waiting on a picture from someone... ;-)

Can anyone post ONE picture of ONE nut, so I can show a dealer what I need?

thanksss

no 83 in the catalogue above, only difference the lower part is a bit longer, should fit as good as the others though... don't have my tools with me so can't take a pic... sorry

Hi,

i have the telefone rims from atiwe on my 86.

The normal nuts are used.

the blue ones are mine

I recently got some 15x7 Atiwe rims, and the normal nuts fit, like you say, but the 14x6.5 atiwe rims I have, have a larger hole...

I have some rims from Australia which have the holes big enough for the nut to go inside the rim. Around the hole, the rim is flat, and the nuts have washers on them..

anyway, they nut fit into the Atiwe rim, but because the ative rims have a tappered hole, and the nuts have a flat washer, they dont fit...

SO I need something inbetween.
