Wheel Bolts
« on: 07 March 2007, 02:17 »
I was hoping someone could help with the specifics of what wheel bolts i need....

I have a set of 14" BBS RA's to try and have found my bolts are too short, they only stick through maybe 4mm. I am guessing i need another 10mm or so.

I've found some places to buy them but have no idea what thread or pitch or whatever they are!

Can anyone help or does anyone know the dimensions of the stock bolts for this wheel?

Thanks!  :smiley:

Or if someone with ETKA could give me the codes and description for the longer bolts? 

Anyone pretty please?   :kiss:    :grin:

You basically want an M12 wheel bolt with a 1.5mm pitch and a radiused seat.

The only wheelbolt I can find on the online etka tyoe site is:

Part No: 3A0601139
wheel bolt / M12X1,5X23,5

You might want to check that site out by the way:

http://www.vagcat.com/

The info on there is priceless, I'm sure the parts guy at my local VAG garage hates me since I discovered that site. I'm always ringing him with a list of part numbers for obscure little bits which he then has to order in for me! In fact I'm going in tomorrow to pickup a complete set of new wishbone/arb mounting bolts.


You got any pics of your dad's split ?

Nice one! Cheers Tobz.  :smiley:

I'll get the length measured and get some ordered.
