Flat Seat, Tapered or Both?
#1
Evening all!

I've got a set of pug wheels for my HDi, but I'm having some issues with fitting.

I have a f*ck-ton of bolts, of varying lengths and styles, and some taper-to-flat-seat washers, however these are too big for the bolt holes and as such would need machining down (or I'll have to buy a set of extended, flat seat bolts)

This is fine, and I can sort that, but while I was test-fitting the wheels, I noticed that the bolt holes aren't parallel, they clearly have some degree of taper in them. Now, is this just a lead-in, or will they take tapered bolts, potentially? They have got a flat surface around the bolt holes, so they will certainly work with flat-seat bolts, but it'd make my life easier if they'd go in with tapers.

So any ideas? For example, does anyone know if there is any taper in cyclone (or any other peugeot wheels) bolt holes, or if they are completely parallel.
