Stupid question I know but need some bolts for the spacers I have/need for the S4 wheels ... so what the hell is the stock wheel bolt length?

Thanks!

Or if anyone has some bolts they want to sell for 15mm spacers

[Maverick]

stock bolts should be 35mm then 15 mm spacer adds to 50mm bolts

[Maverick]

i assume the stock S4 wheel's offset is 35mm

18x8 et45 ... way the hell inside the fender

I was told by someone it was 28mm. But I guess not

[absolutegtr]

it is indeed 28mm.....search next time

Agree with 28mm.
Word from a wheel shop was that we only need 4 threads bite on five-bolt wheels to be safe.

Did ... for 2 seconds lol

True again.

Furthermore, a general rule of thumb, the factory has 20mm of thread poking out from the wheel. So even after you add the 15mm spacer (requiring a 43mm bolt) about 20mm of thread should protrude after the spacer. BUT, having just 15mm, is just fine

Say what? So the stock bolts are long enough for a 15mm spacer? I dont trust that shit. Ive always heard and gone by (all bolts/nuts in general) you should have at least the amount of bolt in contact as the width of the threaded portion of the bolt

Nevermind read wrong, ordering new bolts anyways

[Maverick]

who said 28mm???
I ordered spacers from 2Bennett 8 and 10 mm with my wheels, they said the standard bolts is 35mm.
