Title: BBS bolts for split rims
Post by: Toast on May 27, 2009, 09:25:39 pm

Looking for some help chaps as some of you may Know I recently got a set of Audi/bbs rs 861 split rims for the Ed30  had them refurbed and put them on the car, But last week I noticed the laquer starting to lift on 1 of the centre's. Anyways I split all 4 centre's on Sunday night as I want them all re-done Right this time but as I went to slacken the last bolt on the final wheel I found that 1 of the bbs bolts heads was stripped in the inside meaning there was no way of getting it out with me spline tool and ratchet  (:mad: Lot of swearing) Finally got it out with help from a mate.  But I now need to source a new bolt and may buy a few spare's Just incase  :wink:  I've tried phoning Justmatz but can't get anyone :confused:  So was wondering if anyone new of any other bbs spare's speacialists?! 
I'm also checking Ebay

Any help would be appreciated :happy2:
