Extra long locking wheel bolts.

[devonmikeyboy]

Anyone recommend a place that sales a good set of 40mm long locking wheel bolts that are not made of soft cheese so the heads don`t get rounded off or rusted up over time and have the right seat to fit OZ Ultraleggera alloys?

Funnily enough I just bought some recently.
If you contact Abi@thettshop.co.uk she should be able to help.
Get the McGard locking nuts - good quality.

Get the McGard locking nuts - good quality.

I've gone through three sets of McGards, the keys just aren't strong enough and end up getting shredded - many people on uk-mkivs.net have had the same problem. I never overtighten them either, i've always used a torque wrench and tightened the locking nut UNDER the manufacturers recommended setting.

Ended up ordering some Mcgard extra long lockers from TT Shop which at £34.29 plus £3.95 P+P which where only about £7 more then ebay nameless items. Since my alloys cost £1000 before tyres the £7 extra for quality named locking bolts is well justified so thanks Jamiekip for the reply.

Well worth it - Trust me, we've been there to walk out to a car on brick - it sucks

Hide the locking wheel nut in the car too!
