Default wheel nuts

I am thinking of getting the following wheels of ebay. nothing spectacular but its a start.. anyway theres a few nuts missing as shown in the photo. Does anyone know where I can pick up a few and how much are they likely to be?

go to the wheels and tyres section and use the keyword nuts.

dude! save your cash. im pretty sure you could buy good 2nd hand set of 17" or 18" wheels for a few hundred dollars. besides, the guy only has a 90% rating. Are you really gaining anything with those wheels?

as nice as that would be, I don't think a set of 17's (with tyres) is gonna be in my price range right now. The thing is, I really just need tyres (currentlly all my tyres are unroadworthy!) This way I get 4 wheels + 4 decent tyers for the price I would pay for just tyres at kmart auto... Still beats my hub caps. neway thanks for the opinion. cheers

Try a wheel/tyre shop, you can pick them up for a few bucks each. They'll also be able to tell you the correct size needed.

the reason im guessing the nuts are missing is because id say they had locknuts at some time... just buy a set of locknuts from supacheap for like $15-20max and problem solved
