I have just fitted some VW Pepperpot Alloys O/G on Dehlers etc.
I got the correct nuts bolts(tapered) from B/werks, the nuts I have for the rears are open ended ones, I have noticed the thread does not go through them all the way. I counted 14 turns before they are tight, Is this sufficient?
If it is I shall order some closed end ones as it looks scarey to me.
I'm certain these wheels like carats shouldn't need longer studs but ....
Thanks

Re: wheel nuts
if they are not flush with the nuts the studs are not long enough, and also not safe

Weird though every body I spoke to thought these pepperpot atiwe alloys were just a straight swap like the standard carat ones
