i've been looking into this and have concluded that any new type wheels from 2005 onwards need nuts with the chamfer on the bottom, wheels up to 2005 need the flat bottom nuts..so in your case using 2006 wheels the nuts must have the chamfer on the bottom... ... - .- -.

all the threads are the same, so you need to buy nuts for the wheels you are fitting not for the vehicle you are fitting them to 2002 td6 vogue, 06 supercharged facelift

As far as i can recall the pre 2006 wheels need a nut with a 20mm shank and post 2006 have a 23 mm shank. Easy quick reference is that the older nuts are usually black and the later ones are silver. You can't put later nuts on early wheels as they won't fit through hole However be careful not to use older nuts on newer wheels as they wont provide necessary security as they will be loose in the holes.

Ummm Not 100% certain as i dont have them in front of me but certainly worth a go first. It should be obvious if they fit though - Ken will know more as he has had both - and he is "nuts" about wheels |

They look the same, but the Defender ones are different.

Yes that right. I will ask him. He want's nearly a 100£ and I don't want just to open a account on ebay to buy some. Daniel
