Ahhh, riiiight.
Erm, are they longer, shorter or what then? Last alloys I bolted on to a Fiasco I just used the normal steel bolts.

Same bloke who is selling the wheels. They are longer with a washer behind the nut. They won't go on with standard bolts as the wheels don't have taper in the holes.

Those last ones aren't a million miles from what holds the wheels onto my Xantia....

I needed a set of locking wheel bolts for the Camaro, and went to a local company for a set. This new boxed set should have fitted without a problem, although that turned out not to be the case. One of the bolts would not thread onto the hub, the thread had not been tapped correctly at the factory, so I telephoned them returned the set, and swopped it for another set that fitted properly.
So if I were to buy a used set of wheel bolts off ebay, I would certainly expect to have to use a die nut on them, before taking them anywhere near the car.
