Multivan/Carat wheels

Post by Devon81 »

Hi

Do the alloy multivan and Carat wheels fit straight on any t25, ie do you have to fit longer studs etc.

Many thanks Ian

As far as I am aware the bolts are the same length....hopefully someone will confirm

But you will need new studs/bolts anyway as standard steels have radius seat bolts/nuts whereas standard alloys are taper seat studs/bolts. And tapered locking wheel nuts/bolts to ward off scallies.

VW used radiused wheel bolt fittings for everything, except for the standard t3 alloys! so, if fitting these you will need either the correct fittings for the wheels or some taper seat nuts and bolts.
