wheel bolts

Featured Replies

Got some wheels on and They came with some wheel bolts, I am not to happy with the quality though, I have fitted them but can anyone suggest some good quality ones?

Taper seat?

I believe so, they are much taperyer than my original ones, just seem very soft and and weak compared to the original ones I had

I dont want them on the car full stop so I need to get some tomorrow ideally, I no this limits me a bit but what do halfords do? I think they need to be a tad longer though

What is wrong with new OEM ones - apart from the price?

OEM are radius seat, he needs taper seat for aftermarket alloys :)

Impossible to find a set on a Sunday!

What's wrong with the quality of what you've fitted (or not as it goes)?

They seem really soft and crappy! 120nm is the correct torque rite?

110-120 is enough.

They're probably not as soft as they seem.

Well one stripped when fitting the wheels, one started to go but got it out somehow and at least 3 others are on the limit of any tighter good bye thread and they didnt reach 120nm

Not good but definitely been given the right thread?

I dont have a thread pitch gauge thingy to check but they should be! I messaged the guys I bought the wheels off an await a reply! What sorta length are the standards? I want a slightly longer bolts if possible

Check the thread against your standard bolts, they should go together spot on.(thread placed onto thread)
