Title: Extended wheel bolts
Post by: Jamminjim on April 01, 2014, 09:33:00 pm

I've got some 10mm spacers I'm hoping to try on the back wheels of my Jetta when I fit my summer wheels shortly.
Obviously I need longer bolts to accommodate so I've had a look on flea-bay and found some of reasonable price, but i'm a bit dubious as these bolts will play an important part in keeping me alive!
Where has everyone else got longer bolts from?

Thanks in advance for any pointers!

I got mine from awesome gti mate, I paid £1.80 per bolt (40mm)  :happy2:

I've always used the H&R bolts (41mm) for 10mm spacers, had them from both DPM performance and the TT shop in the past  :happy2:

Personally I think air rules....Love bouncing the back end of my 40' DAF at the traffic lights, sadly with a woman, kid and three kittens to support it'll be a while before the Jetta gets blessed with air ride :sad1:
