I would contact The Roadster Factory. Question is are they Big TR size or Spitfire? Maybe the same, don't know that to be true or false. May well be the same as used on MG and AH big and small. I think they will be farly common among the British wire wheel cars using that same adapter.

Or call Scott Harper at Team Triumph 330-392-7176 who may well have used nuts if you can identify the thread size.
