Why all my lugnuts are 28mm, and the one I bought from the local dealership was a 27mm lugnut? I was at the understanding that all lugnuts from a 95 disco were 27mm. For a while I thought I was just being stupid, but then when I bought one from the dealership, and found it fit the 27mm(6 point socket) perfectly, and then the 27mm socket doesnt fit ANY of my lugnuts, I thought it somewhat odd. Was this an option, or was it standard for the 95? Now that I cant use s.t.e.a.l.e.r.s.h.i.p, what shall I do?! Thanks, Jared |

The actuall nuts under the caps can rust causing the covers to swell a little bit, this is probablly what happened. |

Every single one of them? When I put the 27 mm on it's noticably smaller. Also the new lugnut isnt "broken" free yet, like the others. All of my covers swivel back and forth with just the turn of the hand, is this normal? It looks like the covers are somehow glued to the actual nut, but.. I dont know. |

I don't know if it would be normal for every single nut to rust and swell the covers as none of mine have done it yet, just throwing it out there as a likely possibility. As for your covers swiveling back and forth it seems like I might have noticed mine doing that as well, but it has been a while since I have used my alloys. |
