Correct wheel bolts for Borbet A's

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know whether borbet A's use rounded (standard vw) seat bolts or tapered seat wheel bolts?

 

Here's a picture of the wheel studs, although most aftermarket wheels have the tapered seat's these also seem to look like rounded bolt seats. Can anyone tell better from this picture? (they are ET30 7.5x16's)

Thanks for the reply mate, that does help. Because it does appear to look like 60 degree tapered wheel bolt seats but when you feel the seat you can see its slightly rounded too. Think this is because someone previously may have used the standard 'rounded seat' VW bolts on them hence causing this little indentation.

 

Just want to make sure I make use of the right bolts when I fit them.
