    The wheel nuts are 6160 and forged in a 200-tonne press as per aviation standards.

    weight of wheel nut .2% of stuff all
    x 20 nuts on car = .2% of stuff all x 20

    weight of aluminium nut .1% of stuff all

    total difference .1 %x20 of stuff all

    weight of brake caliper = weight of wheel nut x 110000

    never mind i bought some didn't i haha

    What do you recommend as locknuts to go with these and would they suit Work wheels?

    I guess any lock nut would be sufficent.

    I can't see why they won't work with Work wheels. So long as they are not tappered like the Volk GT-C you should be fine.
