BBS RM SPLIT RIM REBUILD, IS IT 100% NECESSARY TO USE NEW BOLTS.

[dub fatha]

hi there
im about to give my rm's a rebuild,

and was wondering if it is 100% necessary to use new bolts when putting the two halves of the wheels back together.

i have heard stories in the past of the bolts streaching and eventually snapping etc. is this true?

as i dont want to waste £120 on new bolts if i dont need them.

any help or info would be much appreciated.

thanks

Bin the old ones. The only problem you will find is that they go rusty. 

Stainless all the way.

Titianium touch.de sells them.

if they hadnt rusted then they sure will be now

if you going to expense of refurbing them then new bolts would finish them off nicely
