Wheel Bolt Length for 8mm Spacers
« on: February 21, 2012, 12:04:13 pm »
Hi All, can anyone tell me what size wheel bolts i will need to run for 8mm spacers on each front wheel?

I was thinking that 35mm would be long enough.

Taking a wild guess . Prob 8 mm longer then std ! And yes that will involve removing 1 Luke

35mm should be fine assuming the polo uses the same oem bolt length as the golf @ 26.7mm :happy2:

Well, i went for 40mm bolts in the end (after some advice from PerformanceAlloys.com - whom i thoroughly recommend - speak to Michael), and some lovely H&R spacers.
