Just go to your dealer and get a set of Subaru ones which are actually Mcgard Lock nuts. Also slightly cheaper then aftermarket Mcgards

Don't get the Subaru ones that have the 3 prongs as they're cr@p. Get the proper McGaurd ones that Halfrauds sell.

All the latest ones are the proper 'wavey' pattern key design just like aftermarket versions but cheaper.

What type of OZ wheels have you got mate? I'm looking for a set of locking wheel nuts for Superleggera's but the dealer ones from P1/UK300 OZ's are same as Subaru alloys and don't fit.

The Leggeras have a much bigger seat on the nuts. The McGard ones the dealer had, had a nice feature in that they had a rotating sleeve which prevented mole grips being used. The ones in Halfords are not like this, only 1 piece.

Has anyone came across these, maybe 2nd generation of wheelnut design.

The leggera wheel centre is pretty open therefore it would be quite easy to get molegrips on to one piece locking wheel nut.

Hi
Ive got OZ Racing Crono Evolution (magnesium wheels) 18" fitted with PZeros, nice and light and they fit well on the Classic.

Thanks for the info I will take a visit to Subaru.
