Hello guys. Just a really quick question. I have been using search I promise

I'm after some alloys for my new mpv/ works truck. I have read that wobbly bolts and washers will allow a more common cps to be fitted. Is this true? And if so can you post a link to the right bolts on eBay please? I know it's a cheeky ask but I really want to get this project done in less that two weeks

Regards

Andi

It's kinda true but not ideal.

As there is no spigot on the back there is a bit of a safety issue with using wobble nuts, also some wheels will require longer studs on the rears and depending on the centre bore of the new wheels you will need to either modify the spigots on the front hub, have the centre bore of the wheel bored out or use spigot rings. Usually its a case of modifying the hubs/ boring the wheels out.
