I just checked and itīs M12x1.25 my balljoints come from Rally Design so it should be the same.
I have M12x1.25 locknuts so just let me know if you want me send them to you.

Now I am confused....
I found a nut today that fitted,
but when I tightend down on it it stripped out.

So I now know there is a nut with a close thread.
I am tempted to plump for the 1/2"UNF nuts on Eblag.
Then if they are wrong at least I now then that they are M12's
And will still have time to get them shipped out.

BTW aint M12x1.25's wheel nut size?

Thanks for all the offers and replies guys.
That's what makes this such a great forum..

Wheel nuts are usually M12x1.5, but the wheel shops stock M12x1.25 too, so some cars must use it as well.
