Technically it is possible but may be unsafe because you can't ensure that the rim is still properly seated on the hub face. Anyway, LTA don't like aluminium racing nuts, from what I hear. Apparently it must be steel nuts. Anyway, aluminium is weaker and can crack and fail. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because it is lighter and the racing teams regard them as throwaway items to be replaced from one race to another. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
