Locking nuts when running staggered spacers
« on: February 04, 2013, 09:46:50 pm »
Ive bought some 10mm spacers for the front and some 15mm spacers for the rear, both sets have 10 longer bolts with them so I could fit them but I dont really want to leave them without lock nuts. With the spacers being staggered what are my options for locking nuts? Can I just buy a set that fill fit all the wheels or buy 2 sets?

Thanks

Buy a set to suit the 15mm spacer and cut two of the bolts down to suit the 10mm spacers.

42mm bolts will do the trick.
