someone with moar wheelbolt knowledge required  I've bought a nice, dirty diesel e36 325 tds, but me being me, and being awkward, I want some silly wheels on it  the wheels I have are the type which take sleeve type nuts, like revolutions, and the standard beemer ones are taper seat anybody know of any factory wheelbolts which might be suitable, or if not a good source for what I'm after? I'll be trying maurice at the excellent mistertee later, but thought I'd ask first incase they are summat really obvious! - cheers - kfw |

Rally design are cheep for them, they don't list the length, but a phone call would sort that easily/quickly. There's a rally specialist local to me who keep just about every length thread and type combination of wheel bolts/studs/nuts possible off the shelf. (They've got a ~15'x5' wall of those little plastic tubs of them). If you wanted me to pick up anything before the next play weekend let me know, they're not the cheapest, but it's nice knowing you've definitely got what you're after in your hand before you pay out.

Could you not convert to studs? I have been looking at doing that for my drift car (E36 328) looks like a fairly easy thing to do.

haha - thread from the dead indeed - although weirdly the e36 is currently having it's new engine plonked in, as *someone* may have blown the old one up (many burnouts and general skidding about is not advisable)
- cheers for the links on the wheelbolts guys, wheel plans have changed a bit due to buying some 16" revo rfx's, so we'll see what we need
oh and mistertee - clueless? SOMEHOW DON'T THINK SO
- super nice chap, VERY helpfull, good stock and knows what exists and what you need
