Crusoe Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 have you tried the old bolts from the original wheels? know some of the peeps with Porsche and Audi style wheels have got longer bolts because of the adapters, must be able to buy different ones if you need them. As long as the wholes line up you should be able to find some that fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreno510 Posted September 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 yip , its the actual head of the bolt that is too wide though length wouldn't be a problem if they would just bloomin' fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 it it much larger, a bit of a grind on the edges might sort it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moreno510 Posted September 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 even at that i can't see that it would be possible to get a socket in to tighten them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 sounds like a really bad wheel design then, maybe the suplier sent the wrong bolts? The bolts are usually a fairly standard size though so it sounds strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
