Wheel bolts for Oettinger REs
Hey guys,
I just picked up a set of used Oettinger REs for my B5 S4 and they (of course) didn't come with the wheel bolts. Does anyone know of a place in the northern virginia area that would stock wheel bolts that would work? AFAIK they need to be 14x1.5 34mm ball seats. TIA!

They are a ball seat, but the curvature is slightly different from OEM.
Best bet is to buy the wheel bolts from someone that sells the wheels.
The exact curvature needed has been posted on the wheel and tire forum before (probably in a discussion on RAD wheel locks).

Re: The stock bolts worked fine with my RE's
How? Aren't they too short? I got about 1.5 turns with my stock ones. All of the places I have seen say they require 34-35mm shaft length 14x1.5mm ball seat wheel bolts. I called ALL of the auto parts stores around here today and none of them had them in that length.
