BMW Style 108 split rim bolts

[cottamlee93]

I'm currently missing 2 of the bolts from the rims on my 108 wheels, before I source a full wheel myself I wondered if anybody may have some spare bolts knocking around?

The bolts are a bit easier to post than a full wheel!

Thanks

I have some used in good condition. £1 each plus £2.50 p&p.

Zedebee, perfect! How many do you have?
I'd take 10/15 depending how many you'd be willing to part with. (Planning on splitting the wheels at some point so I'll assume a few will break)

Thanks

You will find the bolts don't break Lee, the heads tends to round off leaving them stuck

I believe the wheels have already been stripped at some point in the past for a refurb, but it is always better to have some spare bolts. I just hope they were stripped/rebuilt properly. The two bolts that are currently missing are definitely not sheared in the barrel they are missing, so may have had two bolts round of in the previous refurb.

Thanks for the heads up!

Get an M7 tap and die to clean out both the threads on the wheel and the bolts. If the centre section does not part with the rim, a dead blow hammer should split them
