18" fitment issues

[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?

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.

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

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  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

any of you guys know of a good garage to take it too to get it checked out and get all the bits round the newcasltle area. just i dont want to be driving it round much with the other 3 wheels still on with the wrong nuts.

er...dude...I wouldn't be driving it around at all if the wheels fall off 

put your old rims back on

Mr Chip can you not put the other wheels back on. If not dont drive your car anywhere. Get it checked out by a qualified person first.

Whats your wheel situation? (oem set, plus the devils?)

Do you have your original wheels you can put back on the car?

Bolts are just over a £1 each.. Quite a good investment if you ask me..
