rebel county Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 hey, i bought a set of old school rims for my super carry last week and tried to fit them this evening but the bolts aren't long enough (bought them off trademe for a good price so didn't see them before purchasing them). what can i do to fit them on? they are about 20mm short. thanks in advance. david.

bubblegoose Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 20mm is a huge difference, you can get longer studs though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebel county Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 have they had spacers welded to the back of them? don't think they have but i'll check soon. best take into a garage or can someone on here help me? the stubs (bolts) are projecting out about 2 or 3mm. edit: no spacers welded to the back of them.

JasonK Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Shank nuts? that was my thought too cause near on an inch is a fair bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
