    I had a knocking noise a couple days after I put on my 19's on my b6 a4. Took it to the dealer and they said I need longer bolts. Does this sound right? Where should I get a set?
    I thought this thing was going to give me 30 mpg,

    Knocking ? As long as you get 7 full turns on the bolt its long enough, maybe yours were too long and are hitting the rotor or ?

    Hm... sounds like the lug bolts may be too long and hitting something in the back of the cars hub. I had that happen to me before.
