I had a bit of an "off" whilst messing about in a car park and stuffed my car sideways into a kerb. It was to be expected, really, off road tyres and tarmac don't mix. The car is ok but the drive nuts/flanges and wheel nuts are wrecked. Are the flanges/nuts a universal fitment or will I have to buy them from the makers? The car is a GV Rex X. My tyres are now almost bald. Any suggestions for a half decent set of on-road tyres?

nuts & drive hubs are different between manufacturers.

The nuts are M10 but some are fine pitch (1.0mm) others are coarse(1.5mm)

The drive hubs off most race buggies can be swopped around between manufacturers the only problem is there are many different offsets available and some use a 2.5mm where as others use 3mm drive pins.

as for tarmac tires i know GRP make some dont know of any others as i've never wanted to look.
