Wheel Bolts

[Matt-18]

I'm struggling to get hold of the right wheel nuts for my new alloy wheels!!
Sounds silly I know, but I have got 10mm spacers for each wheel as well so the bolts will need to be longer. I need 16 bolts as I have none atm.

Can anyone help?!?!??

measure your bolt, add 10mm to that, (to the thread length)
then PM badger5 on here, saying you need M12x1.5 *enter thread length* Tapered (if that is the seat of the bolt) and how many you need

(best way to find what you have, push some blue-tack into the wheel hole, and look how it comes out as)


or if you type in on ebay "m12x1.5 wheel bolts" comes up with loads, find the right thread length (or about same) and the correct seat of the bolt, and order

Suj has it down to a 'T'

Ebay is the way on getting hold of some, best price I could find and real good quality.

Cheers Suj, thats a job for me at the weekend then.

I did order some off Demon Tweeks, but they had a collar/tapered edge or something so they wouldnt go through the holes in the alloy wheels.

I never knew it would be such as pain in the a#* to get some!

so much to know/what you should know lol

i bought some Sport Rader locking nuts on ebay the other day and they dont fit! they to wide! Any one interested?

 

[suj]

too wide? for the hole, wheel hole?

 

[Ieuan-J]

too wide? for the hole, wheel hole?

to wide for the hub hole...

 

[suj]

so you got M14x1.5 (or 1.25) the "x1.5" is the thread spacing
M14 is the bolt hole diameter, sell them to the Leon/other Ibiza boys (mk4 onwards)

Sorry Suj, explain to me what size bolts mean? So for example 12x1.25 or sommit?
I get so confused!!!
