Does anybody know where I can get a set (80) bolts for the split rims of e85 wheels style 108. Looking at getting wheels refurbished and want to renew bolts
 
Had my oem bolts come off on the highway. the vibrations were scary. Grabbed these

Exact match, without the BBS VS engraving on them. Unfortunately BBS doesnt sell these separately

I forgot the torque rating the garage used, but i think its 24Nm? if someone can let us know, would be great for future references
 
I would advise anyone after having 108 refurbed is to go buy a torque wrench and check them all yourself. Main dealer left at least 1 or 2 loose on each wheel after a refurb and I found them to be stripped, very obvious as no effort applied when checking so they knew about it ... I had mine set on 20Nm to be sure I wasn't doing any damage by over tightening. They fixed it all after taking it back but I have even less trust now. Had the spark plugs changed years back on an inspection 2 by main dealer, recently changed them myself to find number 6 is clearly older and a different brand to the rest. My thoughts are trust no one but yourself! :rofl:

Fully agree.

I've learnt over my 55 years on Earth that whether it's car mechanics, builders, doctors, solicitors or whoever you can imagine, almost no "professional" will do the job exactly as you would like (because time is money, or they just can't be arsed, or they don't actually know what they are talking about).

As the saying goes, if you want a job done properly, do it yourself.
