penfoldvr6 0 Posted January 1, 2007 Hi there, I recently bought a set of wheel adaptors off Ebay (5x100 to 5x 130). They came with a full set of genuine porsche wheel bolts & locking bolts. The only thing is they didn't come with the adaptor mounting bolts. I think they are FK but cannot be sure as there is no markings. Does anyone know where I can get some bolts to mount these, THEY SEEM TO BE A SPECIAL SIZE??? OH YEAH...HERES A PIC OF THE WHEELS I'VE JUST HAD BACK FROM THE PAINT SHOP :D THANKS CARL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

penfoldvr6 0 Posted January 1, 2007 mounting hole....there isn't any taper, it's just a flat mounting surface. Almost like an engineering bolt may fit? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
