Wheel Bolt Recommendations

[MileMan402]

TL;DR: Does anyone have recommendations for high quality, longer wheel bolts to use with spacers? I don't want to spend hundreds of dollars for Tikore though.

Thanks!

Long: So when a tech went to install my spacers they didn't thread the bolts in by hand, but rather ran them in with the air gun. This caused the threads to get jacked up on a couple bolts. These were the bolts that came with my ECS spacers. I'm thinking they aren't as strong of metal as the stock ones (edit: shouldn't assume this, it was 100% the mechanic's fault) so I'm looking for a potential better replacement. Anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks!

We've never had any issues with bolt strength. They are made to the same strength as OEM. Your mechanic should pay closer attention before he destroys some wheel bolts and possibly cross threading your hubs by carelessly blasting them in with his air gun.

We have European made bolts from Hartmann available
Hartmann R13 ball seat lug bolts at Achtuning

I liked the two piece design of the OE bolts so I went with RAD or Otis inc. they have several lengths.

Two piece is probably not strictly necessary though.

Sorry Jason, I shouldn't have made that assumption. It definitely wouldn't have happened if he had properly threaded them by hand. And I love my ECS spacer kit other than that; I guess I was just stressed when I typed that because I want to get my summers mounted.

I've long since thrown out the bags the bolts came in, what length do you recommend for 10mm and 15mm spacers respectively? nevermind found it on your site

We have bolts from H&R and Hartmann available, both are European made with exception of the "Value Line"

Thanks guys I'll take a look at these too.
