3200 wheel bolts

[ravingfool]

I picked up a 'cheap' set of 3200 wheels as gathered they were the same fitment as for my 4200 in the hope I could use them as spares particularly whilst I get the 4200 alloys refurbished...

I've since educated myself on the cost of the bolts the correct length for the 3200 alloys which I'd not anticipated!

I see hill engineering do sets as an alternative to OEM which are probably the best option but before I do that I wondered if anyone had a set spare or other suggestions?

Cheers!

Have you tried searching on Ebay or contacting people like Mike Roberts and David Askew ?

There are alternatives,if you search the threads on here. Rusty sets, the chrome peels, crop up on eBay etc. If they are just as spares people have put cosmetic caps over them.

They are M14x1.5mm thread with a conical seat. You can order any length you like for peanuts, they just won’t be 22mm heads.

Thanks, any idea what the proper lengths should be?!

Getting confused looking around!

Looked on eBay, no old sets at the moment, just lots of adverts for aftermarket bolts which are supposedly not suitable for OEM wheels...

No I haven't contacted the people you refer to, what is their connection? Are they motor factors or have machine shops able to provide these?

They deal in second hand 3200 parts...
