Aye, longer studs(not bolts) needed. Have a search as there is a key max size that can be fitted without pulling the rear hubs to bits = ballachus. Worth getting an electric/windy torque wrench as winding the new studs in by had gets old fast.

You will probably have to get some open ended nuts too if you ever want to fit your old wheels as the studs will be too long for standard closed wheel nuts.

Paul I have 15mm spacers on my 8J Cup 1 rears. they are the type of spacer that fasten onto the existing studs and include new studs upon which you mount your wheels. They seem to work great. Design911 was my source. http://www.design911.co.uk/fu/prod27...-15mm-to-75mm/

Thanks Jaye

I was originally hoping they did the RSR finish but I'm really pleased with them as they're not shiny, so they do in fact look quite similar.

Cheers,
Paul
