Just swapping my wheels over so I can get one set refurbished and put some spacers on... The bolts that came with the spacers have a tapered top where the standard size bolts don't, I'm guessing one sets for alloys and the other for steels? But which way round is it... And are the tapered extended ones going to be ok on the smr speedlines or will they ruin them?
Sorry for my ignorance!
Cheers,
Laurence
Now that's established - does anyone have any oe +20mm bolts lying round I could buy?

Repped.. Keep forgetting that! Haha, are the bolts for smr's and genuine speedlines different? They look more chamfered...
no mate, there is some slight variations in the flat bolts, some have a slightly longer unthreaded section in the middle but they all do the same job . .
