Cheeeeeeeeeeers lads. I popped into the dealership today and the guy just looked at me funny and said, ummm come by on monday.

Don't suppose anyone knows how much thread contact there should be when the bolt goes into the hub? I've got some FK 15mm spacers for the rear and I'm not sure if the standard bolts go into the hubs by more than 15mm or not? If they do I'll need to grind down the ends of the bolts so they don't go through the spacer and bottom out on the suface beneath.

Yeah - just remeasured a wheel bolt here properly and it is M14. I think I was looking at it from the wrong angle. :doh:

Standard bolts iirc are 27mm long. 30mm is fine though so your bolts should be 45mm long for a 15mm spacer.

Just measured the bolt here and can confirm 27mm of thread. :)

Sad really isnt it how my head is full of this kinda stuff.

More like damn useful at times I would say! :thumbup:

Ah, sorry, should have said, its a bolt on spacer so the spacer will bolt on to the hub and the wheel will have to bolt on to the spacer. Hence I'm trying to figure out if there will be more than 15mm of thread protruding from the back of the wheel and going into the spacer? Does that make sense. I don't want to think I'm tightening the wheel on and its just the bolts bottoming on the face of the hub/disc. It looks pretty close so there may not even be any noticable wobble if they were bottoming out on the surface underneath.

I should say, I find it amazing when people have that ability to recall information like that. When I was a bike tech I used to be able to remember all sorts or random part numbers and fitment info that is now totally useless.

50mm I believe! Up top it says standards are 27mm so add 20 to it
