    Wheel bolt question

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hey guys, I apologize if this is the wrong sub forum for this question but I'm a little confused and what like a little clarification.

    In the summer I run copper powdercoated Incurve IC-S10's. I'm still using the factory wheel bolts and think it looks kinda ugly and I think black bolts would look better on it.

    What type do I require? Ball seat or conical? What size? There are many sizes listed on that site that say "For OEM" ie: 14x1.5x32mm, 35mm, 38mm, 40mm, etc etc. There are a ton of options on the ECS site and I'm trying to make sure I make the right selection here. If someone can point me in the direction of a better deal than ECS then that would be cool too ;)

    Thanks in advance!

    Some aftermarket wheels use ball seat too. Incurve uses cone. We have some really nice quality black bolts. And you need 14x1.5x27/28. I have some of these black ones in the garage. I can go snap a pic if you like You could also just do these...
