I agree but can we confirm they fit the original alloys.

Those will work, you originally said "steel lug nuts" which to me meant lug nuts for steel wheels not alloys.

They work fine on original alloys, us Range Rover boys get those lug nuts from the factory instead of the lame disco capped units.

Here is the question of the day.....

I have a steel spare wheel... If the lug nuts are different for steel wheels than they are for allow wheels, how am I expected to safely drive should I ever get a flat if all I have are the dorky capped lug nuts?
