Are these the right wheel bolts?

As above, are these the right wheel bolts and locking nuts for a Clio?

Do they not [emoji17] Wanting a fancy set to go with my turinis.

go with a nice stud/nut set instead. makes wheel changing easier as well.

Been thinking this, they hard to fit?

M12 x 1.5 (pitch) x 26mm (thread length) with a 60 degree taper head is the standard size for 1*2's.

Obviously if you run a certain sized wheel spacer then add the sized spacer on top of the above thread length. (Rear hub spacers take standard wheel bolt size)

Its exactly the same as fitting bolts, but instead you fit wheel studs into the hub (with some loctite) then place wheels on with nuts

Also the TPI locking wheel bolts are very weak.

Isn't that super glue? [emoji53]

No. It can come in liquid or stick form. Put it on the threads and wind it into its position to stop it coming loose.

Ie: Cover the end of the studs with loctite, wind the loctite end of the studs into the hub until they sit home, let it dry and then slide wheels on and wind wheel nuts on. Torque wheel nuts up as you would normally.

piece of cake, wheels off, clean threads out, loctite on the stud and wind it in and that's pretty much it. avoid the cheapy ones though as they don't have a shoulder on the thread so can be wound to far in to the hub.

needs to be 712 for studs.

Cheers lads, will look in to it see what i prefer [emoji4]

I was just using that as an example, showing the brand to be different to superglue.
