A Breif Intro of Wheel Nuts (View before Buy)
Share
In our last post, we introduced three main types of wheel bolts. This time, we’re expanding the range with a lineup designed especially for Japanese and American-style nut-secured wheels. Made from titanium, steel, and aluminium, each option offers unique benefits – giving every car enthusiast more ways to upgrade.
First up is our flagship Forged Titanium Locking Nut. Crafted from aerospace-grade Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy, it boasts a tensile strength of ≥1110 MPa while weighing just 34 grams per nut – offering serious strength without the weight. But what really sets it apart is the seven-sided security design. Many premium alloy wheels are stolen because thieves are familiar with common nut designs. That’s why brands like BMW and Porsche include security nuts from the factory – and why your aftermarket setup should too. Each set includes a matching socket at no extra cost. With its raw titanium finish, these nuts will make your wheels stand out. Starting your mod journey with these is a solid choice.
Next, we have another Forged Titanium Nut – but this one steps up the style. Detailed with a six-point star pattern, tri-colour options, and a low-profile head, it’s a favourite among customers who want both performance and looks. We offer them in raw titanium, nitrogen blue, and rainbow finishes – our mates in Melbourne especially love these! Weighing only 39 grams and made from Ti-6Al-4V, they don’t compromise on strength. The hard-anodised surface also adds scratch and corrosion resistance.
While titanium is our top seller, we also offer a Forged Aluminium Nut for those just starting out. With nine colour options, you can easily match your nuts to your wheels or body style. Each nut weighs only 25 grams – making it the lightest in our lineup – and still delivers a tensile strength of ≥572 MPa. The solid one-piece design eliminates the risk of cracking that you might find with hollow nuts from other brands.
Last but not least, we have the Steel Nut – the reliable option you’ll want to keep in the garage. But at Aumotor, we believe even the simplest parts should be built right. These feature a sleek mirror-black finish that feels smooth to the touch. With special surface treatment, they offer excellent scratch resistance (NSS ≥500 hours). Underneath that tough look is a forged steel body with a test load ≥105,700N. Each set includes four locking nuts and a dedicated socket. It’s the perfect detail for the ute-driving bloke who likes things tough but tidy.
