Choosing the Right Part
Thread pitch, seat type and hex size must match your hub and wheel combination. Rays offers dedicated fasteners in the following standards:
- M12 x 1.25: Subaru WRX/STI, Nissan Skyline GT-R, Toyota 86 / GR86.
- M12 x 1.5: Toyota GR Yaris (GXPA16), GR Corolla (GZEA14), Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, Ford Focus RS (LZ) and classic Honda models.
- M14 x 1.5: heavy-duty fitment for the Honda Civic Type R (FK8/FL5).
Rays wheel nuts use a 60-degree tapered (conical) seat designed for aftermarket wheels such as Volk Racing and Gram Lights. Confirm your wheel's seat type before ordering, as many factory wheels use a ball or flat seat.
Installation & What You'll Need
You will need a 17mm or matching socket for the nut hex, the supplied lock key socket where a lock set is used, and a calibrated torque wrench so each fastener is tightened to the vehicle manufacturer's specification in the correct sequence. Re-check torque after the wheels have been driven a short distance, and verify that the nuts and wheel seat surfaces are clean and undamaged before fitting.
Installation by a qualified professional is recommended. Incorrect thread pitch, seat type or torque can result in fasteners loosening and damage to the wheel or hub.

Where can I buy Rays wheel nuts in Australia?
Chicane Australia carries Rays Engineering wheel nuts, lock sets and accessories and ships Australia-wide from the NSW Central Coast. Check your thread pitch and wheel seat type, search by Rays part number, or contact our team if you need help choosing.

The Subaru WRX and STI (all generations) use an M12 x 1.25 thread pitch.
What thread pitch is the Toyota GR Yaris and GR Corolla?
Both the Toyota GR Yaris and GR Corolla use an M12 x 1.5 thread pitch.
What thread pitch is the Civic Type R FL5?
The Honda Civic Type R FL5, and the previous FK8, uses a heavy-duty M14 x 1.5 thread pitch.
Can I use Rays nuts on my factory wheels?
No. Rays wheel nuts feature a 60-degree tapered (conical) seat designed for aftermarket wheels. Most factory wheels, especially Honda and Toyota, use a ball or flat seat, and fitting tapered nuts to them is unsafe.
