who ever said that you cant fit locking bolts to wheels with wobbly bolts. Thats just sh1t lol, i work at R-Tec and we use wobbly bolts all the time, you can even buy wobbly locking bolts now. Its just a bolt sat in a cupped washer that locates into the wheel giving you slightly different pcd's, like said earlier 98 to 100, also 110 to 112 at times.

BE AWARE YOU CAN NOT FIT LOCKING WHEEL NUTS TO ALLOYS THAT HAVE WOBBLY BOLTS FITTED!!!

Its a very good idea if you really want a wheel but it means that your wheels can be stolen with ease!!

OK heres the deal with wobbly bolts.

These allow you to fit an alloy to a car which has a PCD "slightly" different to the wheel. So for an example your PCS is 98, and you buy a wheel which is 100. You would then use wobbly bolts to fit it.

Phone R-Tec for more info on monday
