Anybody know the bolt hexagon size (in mm) on the acenta premium alloys?

 

[...]

21mm if you need to know to get a wheel nut remover you can get a decent wheel brace from halfords or such like that has two double end sockets with it of various sizes one being 21 mm

Thanks Deks, you're a star.
Saved me having to go out in the snow to get the info from the car

I'm looking at these spikes-spider things for traction in the snow and needed bolt size to get a quote.
Know anything about them?
They look better than the snow socks and are cheaper than winter tyres.

 

[...]

i know nothing about them, never heard of them. I do know I am frozen stiff having just gone outside to check the size of the wheel nuts for you

You never did!
Can't be as cold as it is up here anyway

Apparently they are a swiss invention, cost around £200 and easily attached/removed to drive wheels. Might be worth it for me up here as the weather is awful.

I did and no its not as cold in fact no white stuff here
