What size thread are the three bolts that hold attach a rimblow or tuff wheel? The only place I've found online that sells the nuts for this application is Classic Industries and they want $1.99 a nut and they want $7 shipping... They've got balls asking that price for nuts. I’m listening.

They came with the nylon lock stuff in them so they never loosened up. I just took the collar with me and tested until I found the right size.

I don't know if a nylock nut has enough steel thread or is hardened enough to withstand the jolt of a collision. Probably fine. I have seen all-steel locking nuts that have a somewhat conical end. those might work okay. I’m listening.

Vlad, I didn't even think about those nuts until the other day. You are the parts king. I received the rubber button from Rimblow Restorations. Great looking piece. Also got the little beauty ring from Dales Cuda Shop. Fits perfectly, and looks good once installed. All I need now is the base and the nuts! I’m listening.
