they will be fine, heads might be longer though if they're proper laser bolts, safe though . .

Just be wary, there are two different types of cyclones. I have a set in my garden with tapered bolt holes, and a set on my car with flat seating..

Ive seen a few sets like it TBH. I remember reading somewhere on the '6 forum that there were some 'early' cyclones with alternative seating patterns.

Flat seat

The set I had for 4 years on and off had one flat seat and 3 part tapered with same bolts... It's to do with the spare wheel. Old spares needed a taper, but also a flat for the alloys. Newer ones have spare steels which take flat bolts.

Yes 2 types, those in the pic's are the normal pattern which was used until around 1999, after that the bolts still flat faced had a shank on them to help locate the wheel at a guess
