Does anybody recognise this wheel nut, allegedly a commodore wheel nut? I'm chasing some if anybody has any spare. Cheers

Mod edit: These wheel nuts with the narrow shank section are specifically required to suit a cap see this post.

That one looks real old.

But it doesn't really matter, Every Commodore up to VE uses a 12x1.5mm threaded wheel stud and everything from VE onwards uses 14x1.5mm. Both should be easy to find either used or new.

There was a guy on eBay that sold new wheel nuts from Commodores. He collected them when lock nuts went on new cars.

It's a long story, but need that particular wheel nut, with the stepped shank, if that's the correct description

Apart from being rusty what's wrong with the sample.

It is but I can't help otherwise. You'd need to know what model/wheel combination it came from.
