12mm Spacers = What length wheel bolts?

Post by TRS6 » Wed Jul 19, 2017 4:23 am

Hi Guys,

I've just received my 12mm squared Eibach spacers, however now need to add longer wheel bolts.

Does anyone know what length should be ordered when running the 12mm spacer setup?

FYI - This is with OEM PE 21's fitted.

Thanks!

Measure your standard bolts and add 12mm on

Hey J66kco totally agree.. And whilst common logic would say this to be the easiest method... unfortunately I am abroad and without access to the car. I was hoping to order and have arrive by the time I return.

Unless someone can tell me the standard lengths?

These are what I used with a 10mm spacer. A 35mm thread length

I have 12mm spacers with the right length bolts at home but I'm abroad too. I'm sure someone can tell us the right length bolts before I get home next week.

Thanks do you know if it has extra thread or is bang on for the 10mm spacers you run?
