Thanks for any suggestions Hello Leo, Welcome to the Forum. These are suitable, but can be tricky to fit as the flat washer is not captive (as it is on the OEM). McGard 21156SU M12 x 1,5, flat seat, Overall length 15/35 mm, Hex size 21mm, Key diameter 27,7 mm. There are cheaper brands available.
Leo Posted March 16, 2022 Author Posted March 16, 2022 Rojie hi - thanks for speedy reply. Will try those
Leo Posted April 14, 2022 Author Posted April 14, 2022 Update- got the locking wheel nuts suggested. Perfect fit - many thanks again

I've seen many Toyota OEM locking nuts on eBay but not sure if the sizes will be right? Need to look into the details. I would normally give oem preference unless know the aftermarket are higher spec

It may depend on the wheels you have fitted, especially if not OEM You need to check what seating the nuts have, flat or conical. Important. Bolt size and thread should be easy to find. Do you have a JPNZ Owners Handbook for your Gen 2 ?
