I have a set of BBS RAs waiting to go on with brand new tyres, and they've been fully refurbed. Only problem is I need wheel bolts that are about an inch longer to cope with the ET33 offset (mine are 6J*13). I manged to get hold of some longer bolts, but they are still too short (only half an inch longer than standard wheel bolts). Anyone suggest anywhere that sells/can get hold of wheel bolts? I was given my last set of bolts by a mechanic friend, and otherwise wouldn't know the first place to try and attempt to get bolts.

Any help greatly appreciated here.

Surely you can buy the original bolts for the wheels..like for the golf they came out of the showrrom with?

If not i got a shiny gold coin with your name on to swap for them :-D

Tried the stealers at first, before I was given this set off a Bimmer. They said the only ones they stock are the standard ones. Gotta try GSF at some point too.

Demon Tweeks sell wheel bolts to your requirements. Might not be cheap, but I'm sure they would sort you.

the only thing with having longer wheel bolts is, can u get the longer locking wheel bolts?
