Hi Guys.
I was swapping my wheels today (rears with the fronts to get an even tyre wear) and found out that one of my wheel nuts, the locking one is missing so been driving my car, god knows for how long with only 4 bolt nuts at the front passenger side... Does anyone know if that could cause some damage..? If I wouldn't have to swap the wheel I would probably still drive the car as didn't feel any difference but worried that something might've happened... I obviously order the new set of locking wheel nuts and hope to get these by Thursday. Thanks for any advice. Also if someone has a set of standard alloy wheel nuts laying around let me know as I might be interested. Cheers. Matty

if it was me i would still drive it, it wont cause any harm to the car. I cant advocate YOU driving yours but i didnt see any bother in it. Just keep checking the 4 are tight regularly

someone may have had a go for the wheels of a night. Or i find that because of the key etc its possible they dont nip up quite as well as the other
