Fabia Wheel Bolts

[m18rus]

Wife has 2019 Fabia Monte Carlo currently on OEM 16" Alloys. Living in pothole city, this week 2 tyres & 1 wheel rim. Wintering to aftermarket Alcar 15" steel rims. Any info on wheel bolt styles & lenghts & where to buy would be grateful. UK Based. Thanks in anticipation. Russ

Welcome.

 

@Carlstonmight be along and help with his knowledge.

 

When you remove an alloy wheel on a Fabia and other vehicles the Spare wheel fits with the wheel bolts that were used on the alloys.

Thanks for that. I'll compare the new steels to the spare...............

They are lug bolts, with M14 x 1.5 threads

Tighten them to 120 Nm torque 

 

If you buy the correct pattern of wheel then you can use same bolts without any spacers, or different bolts

Thanks John,

@m18rusif changing wheels at home (unless you have a lift ) because VW use silly bolts instead of wheel studs for the sake of your back I suggest you buy and use one, or better still two, wheel alignment tool, or two or four if swapping front wheels to rear.

 

Below is just an example, plenty around to chose from, I've no idea of the quality of finish of this example. - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/223480382915
