At last ..decent wheel bolts

[CA Automotive UK]

Dont know about any of you but i have always found it near impossible to find decent wheel bolts for BMW fitment, they always seem to tarnish or corrode after a few weeks use and can make a good set of wheels look, well...not so good.

Well we are now supplying these 100% stainless steel machined ( not cast) wheel bolts from DT. They are the highest quality we have come across yet in material and manufacture, with a really solid and heavy feel to them. These will never tarnish.

Notice also the inbuilt rubber seal that prevents water getting into the wheel bolt cavity.

The model shown here is for Porsche ( rounded shoulder) but we also have them for BMW.

Just one catch ...they are quite expensive at £7.50 each. But worth it IMO.

16 x £7.50 = £120 owch

:eek: £7.50 bloody hell thats expensive Roy lol you would have to nuts to pay that lol does look good quality though.

compare £120 for bolts to say £2600 for a set of DPE wheels ...not too much in comparison, to keep them looking good ???

But yes i agree, perhaps not worth it for OEM wheels :-)

I'd have to agree Roy, for people on OEM or replica wheels this is maybe an expensive option but for those riding on ACS, BBS, Iforged and the like this maybe a nice mod, if you can afford 3/4k on wheels you can afford £120 on bolts!

It would need to be 20 X £7.50 = £150 for me as there's no way i'd be fitting quality bolts like them next to a fugly locking bolt.

In saying that, there's a chance that thieving scum would steal the bolts and leave the rims! :o

What about matching security bolts? Whilst they look great, it would be a shame to then have the normal BMW security bolt next to them.

haha, how about you get 20 x McGard locking bolts? Same price, super security;)

They are Stunning.. but a little expensive...

Roy... what could you do on a Group Buy?

Might be an idea, if the numbers work out.

maybe someone made caps for the bolts ( i know bmw have one on there locking buts..ect) but i mean caps for all of the bolts?? maybe it would stop corrosion + look alot better , diffreent colours, but silver/grey would suit!

:D

Talkin about lockin bolts, my lock nut thingy has got a bit knackered, a bit sorta twisted where i'v used the useless poxy wheel brace they supply and twisted the nurly bit. Can i go to the dealer and just get another nut to match my lockin bolts or have i gotta get a whole new set?

if its a bmw locking nuts then it will have a number on the key, just go to ur local dealer and get a new key as i had the same problem but i snapped both of mine :( :(
