Default XJS lug nuts, source

What are folk using for OE style lug wheel nuts?
I know the thread is 1/2X20 and I believe the part no is CCC7028 but cannot find any reasonable prices. $10 each seems step when i can buy a set of 20 for $30 for the metric versions.

Jag lugnuts are like gold.

I've never found any aftermarket type that work properly. The diameter of the shoulder seems to be unique to Jag.

Hopefully others will chime in with better news.

Cheers

Absolutely thousands of OE "wheel nuts" (in UK English) on ebay.co.uk all dirt cheap. There are different lengths. depending on the wheel, so just be aware of which length you need.

Had them on my list for a year, as I was looking for chromed + closed ones after I changed to rims without a cover.
Saw plenty of used sets on offer, just never brought myself to actually order.
Till last month that is.
Needed some elbow grease but they came out like new.

Hi!
I too wandered through the forest of lug nut trees and found "nuttin".
Then I called Coventry West (1.800.331.2193)
They have used lug nuts for $5 ea.
You have to call because the website (coventrywest.com) only shows new at $10 ea.
I got 6 and they all polished up nicely and fit my wife's 94 2+2.
The local tire store impact wrenches did a number on those 6 nuts when I got
New tires last year.

Regards and P O R - Press On Regardless !

I think I've got two sets of used XJ-S nuts laying around here somewhere... I know one set has a longer "neck". I even have original locking nuts... They are mine though and are staying on my XJ-S

Look up the part number on JDHT.

Do a part search on that same number.

You'll find that Jaguar used the same lug nuts on several models.

Instead of checking eBay for "Jaguar XJS lug nuts", you can check for "Jaguar XJ6 lug nuts", or some other model. I did that a few years ago. I got a whole set for $16 including shipping. That means I have 20 lug nuts. I think I've already replaced 3 due to issues.
