They are tapered bolts.
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

This to me looks like it has been overtightened  :undecided: maybe the spacers are causing issues

40mm bolts, they the ones which go through the 20mm spacers? Did you torque them up?

yes theyre the ones which go thru, dont have a torque wrench so just done them tight?

Been to about 3-5 different wheels places and non have any bolts that size  :sad:

got myself a torque wrench and copper grease on the plus side lol :grin:

question is now:

what size would normal bolts be as i may take of spacers off for the time being until i can source some longer bolts.

Thanks

edit:

had the same bolts on montys and 4motion alloys (winter wheels) and no problems?
