Help - anyone got any series 2 127 wheel nuts going spare or know if wheel nuts from any other Fiats will fit? I need 5 as some of the threads have worn to nothing on mine. Cheers.

Nuts, bolts as long as the wheel stays on ? found some replacements at Longton Motor Accessories Ltd in Longton Stoke on Trent. Phew! ?

Yes most Fiat bolts would fit - just check the length of the thread is the same. Panda, Uno, 128, Cinq, etc are likely to be the same. I usually just fling them on - if they're too short it's obvious as they don't tighten enough, and too long makes a pinging noise when you move the car - most are completely interchangeable from steel wheels (alloys usually need longer bolts).

Loads on Ebay - just get the right size and away you go.

Crucially, bolts for alloy wheels have a different taper on the head than those for steel wheels. Otherwise, it is just length as Palio says.
