The hub location does not look right to me. Take it off and reposition making sure you do each nut loose at first then do up nuts that are opposite each other.... |

Redshovel, as odd as it seems the nuts actually stick out, check on newer Rangie...

This is the only pic I can find of the same type of wheel, taken at an angle.

Here are some pictures of my wheels, the nuts do seem to 'stand proud' but I am putting this down to the relatively small 'offset value' of 8J for the 19 inch wheels. Simply put there isn't enough alloy sticking out to surround the nuts.

When u say 'stick out a wee bit', do you mean the same distance as mine? If so guess thats just the way they will have to be. Thanks for posting the other pics people.....can see the nuts sticking out....just the wheels I have seem to make them look to extrude even more so! |

just looked the 23mm shank nuts on ebay and some look like the 'nut' bit is more shallower than the others ....maybe there are two types of nuts.. ... - .- -.

Was wondering the same thing Stan. I did wonder if the nut for the RRS wheels was lower in profile as when you look at the picture of my old RRS the nuts appear to be roughly flush with the alloy level on the hub. The offset on this style of alloy was 9J IIRC but the section by the hub was relatively flat... |
