Hey classic Ford fans!
Specifically, you Mk1 Cortina owners (1962 to 1966).
![Alloy Wheel Nuts (16) 7/16 Bolts Tapered For Ford Cortina [Mk1] 62-66 Alloy Wheel Nuts (16) 7/16 Bolts Tapered For Ford Cortina [Mk1] 62-66](http://www.classicpartsshack.co.uk/uploads/7/1/2/6/71268953/s938980124187953719_p306_i4_w640.jpeg)
Got yourself a set of aftermarket alloy wheels for your classic?

Then you're gonna need the right nuts to bolt them on safely.
The original steel wheel nuts won't work with alloy wheels—they're a different shape.

That's where these bad boys come in.\n\nThis is a set of 16 alloy wheel nuts from GEN2.

They're the 7/16-inch size thread, which is what your Cortina Mk1 uses.
The key thing here is the seat—the part that contacts the wheel.

These nuts have a tapered seat, which is the standard style for most aftermarket alloy wheels.

They're designed specifically to fit and center the wheel correctly.
Do NOT use these with your original steel wheels; they are strictly for aftermarket alloys only.\n\nYou get 16 nuts in the pack, which is enough for a standard car with four wheels (four nuts per wheel).

They're brand new, ready to go.

The manufacturer part number is F7/16N,16, so you can cross-reference that.
Give your classic Cortina the finishing touch it deserves with the correct, safe, and good-looking hardware to mount those alloys.

Make sure your wheels stay put!
