Wheel Bolts

[Coops]

whats the spec of standard clio 1.8 16v wheel bolts? diameter, thread pitch and length?

i need to get elongated bolts for my 15mm per side spacers so need to know what the std is and go from there!

thing is i want matching bolts and locking ones aswell, so i'll need 6 standard chrome bolts and 2 standard length locking bolts for rears then 6 long bolts and 2 long locking bolts that match the rear locking nuts. think am askin bit too much!

could buy a full set and trim the rear ones down. or demon tweeks do a stud conversion in different lengths so you could convert them all to studs then fit matching wheel nuts and locking nuts. i think there m12 x 1.5 but i,ll can check later.

[Coops]

i checked the pitch, they are 1.5's but is thread diameter from max width of thread or minimum(i.e. shaft width?) as i got shaft width as 10mm so M10 but not sure?

[MAXIBOY]

def m12. wasn,t 100% sure on pitch

[Coops]

cheers matey, pitch is definatly 1.5, i'll sort summit! :wink:

[MAXIBOY]

try tweeks they have all sorts

[Coops]

sorted fella, found random place that sells any fitment, just choose seating, pitch, thread diameter and length! 8)

link for the place?

could do with a matching set for the new wheels.... if they ever arrive!

[MAXIBOY]

i fancy the stud conversion with some titanium wheel nuts

[summeh]

these yeah ?

What fitment? 12x1.5x ??

[MAXIBOY]

think standard are 30mm thread 20mm head so 50mm plus allowing 10mm in the wheel so i would say min 60mm but maybe next size up 80mm would be to long. i would be one of each to start with and test or as there the same price the 80mm ones and trim them if there to long buy 10mm

[MAXIBOY]

on second thought 60mm should be long enough as they bolt up normally. might even go for 50mm but 60mm to be sure.

[summeh]

i take it they come with nuts as well, although you mentioned 1.94 plus nuts above?

[MAXIBOY]

don,t think so. nuts are separate but you could get these from a scrappy unless you want light weight alloy coloured ones for 4 quid each

[MAXIBOY]

our maybe try ford as i think they still used nuts on a number of vehicles and there cheap

Did you buy these in the end? If so which size/length did you go for as I want to get studs for mine. Cheers.
