Title: Extended length wheel bolts for spacers
Post by: ReflexRob on May 22, 2017, 02:18:05 pm
Just bought a pair of Eibach spacers from a member here and they came with extended bolts. However, 2 of the bolts are locking type and there is no key with it which doesn't bother me because I want a factory look by using the OEM wheel bolt cap (locking or non-locking, doesn't worry me).

Can anyone point me towards a place that sells regular bolts or locking bolts that the OEM caps can be fitted onto?

Cheers

I had a hard time finding longer locking bolts that the cap fits on so just ran with 4 caps.

As long as it's a central type locking bolt then it should fit the oem cap but I gave up looking as most of the longer ones seemed the opposite to what I wanted.

Awesome gti sell longer bolts for spacers. They have a selection of sizes. I got some 10mm forge spacers on there and added the longer bolts, pretty good price! You know it's a trusted place as well unlike eBay shops, you don't really know what you're going to get.
