    I'm after getting a set of 16" rs6 alloys for my mk1 Leon, will my standard steel wheel bolts fit the rs6 or will I need different wheel nuts. Thanks

    Most replica alloy wheels have a radius seating to accept the OE SEAT bolts. Some replicas however have a 60 degree/conical seating which the OE bolts are not suitable for.

    I should know by the alloy if it's tapered it's a no go but if not I should be safe enough
