This category features wheel nuts in aluminium and steel from well-known brands such as TPI, Muteki and Rays Volk Racing. Each set includes 20 nuts with an adapter and is available in M12 thread with 60° cone seat – the most common standard for passenger cars. The range includes lightweight aluminium nuts for reducing unsprung weight as well as robust steel nuts built for daily driving.
All wheel nuts come in multiple colours and finishes, from discreet standard options to bold coloured models that give your wheels a personal touch. Every set includes an adapter for easy installation.
Wheel nuts, how to choose the right type?
Wheel nuts secure the wheels to the hub and are a safety-critical component. The wrong thread size or seat type can cause the wheel to come loose while driving. It is therefore important to check your vehicle's specifications before ordering – particularly the thread size (M12 x 1.25 or M12 x 1.50) and seat type (60° cone, ball or flat).
Aluminium nuts such as TPI XR Nutz weigh significantly less than steel nuts, reducing unsprung weight. Steel nuts from Rays Volk Racing and Muteki offer longer service life and withstand higher torque values.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What thread size do the TPI and Muteki wheel nuts at HQLights come in?
The TPI and Muteki wheel nuts are available in M12 x 1.25 and M12 x 1.50 with a 60° cone seat. Check your vehicle's specifications before ordering – Japanese and Korean cars typically use M12 x 1.25, while European models usually require M12 x 1.50.
What is the difference between aluminium and steel wheel nuts at HQLights?
Aluminium nuts such as TPI XR Nutz weigh approximately 4–5 grams each compared to around 50 grams for steel nuts like Muteki. Aluminium reduces unsprung weight but tolerates lower torque (approx. 70 ft/lbs). Steel nuts are more durable and better suited for daily driving and heavier vehicles.
Is an adapter included with the wheel nut sets from HQLights?
Yes, all wheel nut sets at HQLights are delivered with 20 nuts and one adapter (hex 19 mm). The adapter is needed for correct installation and removal without damaging the surface.
