I was looking for a set of wheel nuts for my sportspack alloy wheels. I am not keen on the standard nuts as they have covers that are a real pain to remove. Where could I get chrome nuts to suit; are they the same as those for any other type of mini alloy wheels?

Unfortunately I was in a crash in my beloved mini cooper last night, although I didn't see the extent of the damage as I was being hauled out by paramedics (it's ok, only whiplash and a bad knee) I had a horrible gut feeling the car may be written off.
