Scouring the UK for longer wheel bolts for my 850.
They need to be 19mm head, cone seat, M12 x 1.75 and about 40mm so 10mm longer than standard.
I've found 35mm in the UK and 40mm in Europe but with a silly price.
Can you help me?
Thanks
Andy

i had same problem. £70 was cheapest i found for set of 20, so i'm currently having a set made at local engineering firm. i think you might struggle to do any better than that.

Thanks, how long are the ones your having made and how much, if you don't mind me asking?
One place I spoke to were going to look into getting some M14 bolts machined down to what I need but they haven't come back to me.

they are ringing me tomorrow with a price. im getting spacers made too. he's just doing the one wheel for now so i can make sure its all good before he makes all of them. i will ask him a rough price for 20 bolts when he rings me. i dont think materials are such an issue with the price, just labour.

just out of interest why do you need longer wheel bolts. what wheels are you fitting. im putting a set of jaguar wheels on. more hassle than i first thought.

Going to put my Nebulas on the 850 but they won't clear the rear S60R brakes. I have Eibach 10mm spacers so all I need now are the bolts. Getting a bit irritating now!! European Tunning want 105E for ten bolts and about 35E postage; bit rich for me.

Andy you can have my spacers and the 10 bolts for £40 but i would need 10 standard bolts from you.
