Hi guys.. Does anyone know what length thread I should get on the wheel bolts ?
I want to replace all of mine and with new locking nuts
I purchased a full set from eBay with the promise that they fit my car but they are to long @28mm !!
Will bolts from another fiat or model fit??

I have a 2007 mk2 1.9 multyjet sport.

Cheers guys

Hi,
It would have helped if you stated the type of wheels you have. I did not see your original post, but you were in the best position to tell what length bolts you needed.

Hi Rob
They are standard alloys to the bravo sport.
I didn't want to take my old ones out to measure as I've been having problems with them braking when I'm re tighning them.. lol.
 
Hmm broken bolts seems to be an issue with Bravos. I wonder if people are over tightening or there is a design issue. Might be stress corrosion cracking or hydrogen embrittlement caused by dodgy plating. Fortunatly my Croma uses Vauxhall/Opel bolts.

Tell me about it.. £1 or so bolts ended up costing me a new hub and bearings.
