Guys,

I am not sure when TRIGO introduced the new nuts. About middle of this year?
To identify them measure the hex.It is a little smaller than before.
A 12 mm hex key works, but it not the perfect fit. The nut is 0.2 mm too wide.
The 1/2" hex won't slip in.

It is also shiny, compared to the dull looking one used before.

Yes, they warped tightening them to 80 lbs after several times.
We changed wheels on one car to use sliks for racing.

I wish that they hold with 50 lbs tightening force and will try from now on with the old version.

SPF users:
I always point out that SPF mounts the adapters on the wrong side from time to time. Because driver side in South Africa is right hand side.

Right hand thread to left hand side of the car is correct.

Hope that helps,

Dominik
