The bit of the wheel that the bolts go through is very thick so I am assuming that is why they are like that.  I have tried ebay but its like trying to find a needle in a hay stack!

if you zoom in on that hole it looks like it has a radius machined in, if so then standard wheel bolts will be ok, just get the length right.

You sound like an expert on zooming in on holes  :rolleyes:   They have chamfered inserts pressed in by the look of it. Gunna try long vw ones I reckon.
