They might not be 10.9 grade like we use, but they are still easy to find.

Not sure. Couldn't find the specs. They are crown bolt nylon lock nuts, M14-2.0, zinc plated. Model number 41198. Couldn't find the specs on them with a quick google search. Look the same as the ones they use and same color/size nylon lock judging by the pictures. Maybe they know what brand theirs are and can comment?

Just noticed them while I was looking for locking nuts for my koni's, they're a different size tho, didn't have any luck finding them. If anyone knows the size that fits konis that would be great, thanks

DForce Wheels (18x10) with Continental WC tires (TINY!!!). Quick / crappy shot as I'm getting the car ready for two days at High Plains Raceway instructing with BMWCCA.

Definitely going to need 295x40 Hoosiers or larger.

You just need to drop your car...the 4x4 ride height on the BOSS really exaggerates the wheel gap when you use a 275/35 track tire.

Wheels look good, I have been waiting for someone to get a set of the black ones from VMS

Would be nice, but I believe those are behind schedule right now. We'll see what we can come up with

I will say that I absolutely loved the 4200s on my M3... and would definitely go that way again should they suddenly become available.

Here is a link to locking nuts

Several shopps in my area use this company for smal parts, hardware, shop supplies etc. The web page shows the items available, you have to call for price and shipping costs.

Good luck

I have installed the Vorshlag camber plated in my LS. I have had considerable under steer in my car on slow corners mid corner to exit turns which I thought was throttle induced by me. I set the plates a -1 for the street as Ford suggests and 0 toe out. With the plates set at -2.5 I get 3/16" toe out. I went back to the same track same conditions and it is almost gone. I like these camber plates. FYI only.
