Mine is a 6-stud one, so yes has the 24mm nuts. The van is dark grey, so going for dark silver coating on the wheels... where would you get a stainless ring? Sounds like a smart idea.Aardvark wrote:No worries.
The covers in your link say they are 17mm. That's probably fine for all the 5-stud Transits but the 6-stud ones are 24mm (if I remember correctly).
Powder coating your wheels will look fine. I would like to do mine as well. In black and then finish off with a stainless ring snapped into the outer edge like the 50's-60's look. VW rings might fit but I haven't had a chance to try them.

Make sure there is enough width to fit them. Some are up to 3" wide so would not fit the 6-bolt Transit wheel.
