18" fitment issues

<< < (4/6) > >>

VC:
crikey mate you've not got the rings either?

some wheels are made for a generic fitment, the rings are added to suit individual fitments to ensure accurate fitment

did that make sense?

savechip17:
yeah i know what you mean, i knew they didnt look right but im a ttl noob to this. i guess ill just give that revo place a ring and just ask them for the bits i need. probs end up paying a bomb but safetys first.

VC:
rings and bolts arent expensive mate so you'll be fine  :happy2:

savechip17:
is there a chance that i could have damaged the thread not on the bolt but on the car ie the hole the bolt goes into?
I feel like a ttl tit about not knowing the basics  :sad: lol

VC:
impossible to tell without looking but can still be corrected with a tap and dye device to clean the pattern of the thread, worst case increased in size with a new one, thats just labour costs but most garages will clean the thread for free in a case like this i reckon...if it was needed
