If the wheels are 7x13 then at a guess I would say they are superlite/ultralite (should say on the centre cap if the haven't been changed), those nuts on ebay are for genuine rover minilite wheels.

These are possibly the ones your after.

dont mess with wheel nuts,get the wheels identified by a mini specialist who can then recomend the correct nut.i have seen wheels seperate from the car whilst in motion before now due to the wrong nuts being fitted.there are more 13 by 7 wheels other than superlight/ultralight,my 13 by 7 are also minilite,but were supplied with nuts as part of a package.good luck

Yeh, true. Usually the most popular brand of 13x7's are super/ultralite, but as said take them to a mini specialist, they will sort you out.
