As I said earlier I have a set of bolts like those and they are perfectly fine for any alloy.
I would never use them myself, but they are perfectly adequate so not wrong!

Again your wrong, different alloys use different seats, radius or square taper, if the wrong bolts are used there is a chance they will not hold to the correct torque.

What does that make Wayne?......

I lost a bolt for mine, went to the scrappers and they gave me a couple with heads looking just like the ones pictured (came from another dub).  They were exactly the same as what I already had in every other way though.

Oh and good shout LowLife. :afro:

Standard bolts are correct for BBS's RA as indeed they are for most / all genuine BBS's alloys, reps use different bolts.
