Bolt safety with spacers + locking nut



Hi ive got some 20mm hubcentric that the wheel bolted to, but they are too wide so im going to try 15 or 16mm whatever i can get.

All 15mm ive seen need longer bolts, the original bolts are 50mm (26mm thread i think). So would the originals be safe enough? All i can see is 60mm bolts on demon tweaks as another option.

And im going to need locking nuts/bolts, what can i do here i cannot seem to find longer ones.


Also i like the look of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TPI-Polar...Wheels_tyres_Trim_Nuts_ET&hash=item461d7b818c

Where it says 27L < is that referring to thread length?

Thanks

You cannot use standard bolts with 15mm spacers.

Have a look in this thread where I've put links to everything you need post No.18.

You can get various size bolts from jjc or demon tweeks so I'm not sure why you can't see them.

Mcguard locking wheel bolts can be bought from demon tweeks in the size you need however id shop around because dt postage is quite expensive.

Hope this helps

Edit: jjc recommend 45mm bolts with those spacers.
