    Looking at a new set of wheel bolts to go with my refurbed wheels :cool:

    Here are the bolts Im going to order.
    https://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorsport/wheel-tyre-accessories/grayston-wheel-bolt

    My question is what seat type do I need?
    I know its a 14mm x 1.25pitch with a 17mm head and 28mm length.

    Edit-maybe thats not the right pitch......

    Seat options are

    Fixed 60 degree
    Fixed Radius
    Loose 60 degree

    Pic of my current bolt


    Thanks

    If the picture you posted in your OP is the wheel nut from your car then you need radius bolts or acorn style seats. Tapered is a straight angle whereas your bolt has a bulge or acorn style seat so you need radius.

    That is my current bolt.
    How did I think it was tapered :o

    Thanks for the heads up.
