Default Longer wheel bolts

Hi Guys

Wheres the best place to buy longer wheel bolts from? I dont think the standard STI bolts will good enough for 8" wide wheels will they?

Cheers

I like the tyres more than the wheels plus the seller was a waste of time when I tried to buy some STi rims off him. I thought they were originally sold for £800, which is a fair price based on the tyres being £200 ea.

888's don't keep well in v.low temps so would be concerned about storage if these tyres have been on for more than 12 months based on the overall price it's not exactly a punt.

you can run the standard studs . its only when you start putting spacers and stuff in that longer studs are needed
