Anyone know what size lock washers fit on the 'collared' lug nuts for 8in wheels?

Just tried 3/8" and they barely didn't fit. Metric size I'm guessing?

Thank you! A friend confirmed 10mm on lugs without the collar as well.

Highly recommend these, especially on a kitted bike.
When you remove the wheel later you'll know what I'm talking about.

Italians love metric... plus they seem to dislike the Japanese, so unlike them, they regularly use; 7mm, 11mm, 16mm, 22mm & 24mm
