OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.. . fail

in my infinite BBS knowledge i seen an "RS" in the picture (didnt read well enough i guess) and when you were explaining stuff to me i was thinking you were explaning an LM. so i was thinking to myself "oh good knowledge about the LM however comma OP has RS." ha ha! reading > me

*facepalm*

[180roman]

so (unless im not seeing something in the pic) the top of the bolt is sheered off and all thats left is the back half of the bolt and a nut? the skinney part of the bolt and the nut should fall out through the back.

i guess im slow cause im really not understanding haha ill just shut up and color

lol.

If most of the bolt head is broken off cant you just tap it through (since im assuming the part on the wheel that the bolt goes through is not threaded..)

the wheels in question are BBS RMs

so there is no nuts on the back of the bolts, the wheels are held together just by the bolts threaded into the barrel hence they can not just fall out

Easy Out my friend. very simple tool for an easy solution

yup, I suggested that or you can take it to just about any machine shop and for 25 or so they should be able to get it out

I know the Voklswagon trick to getting a wheel off when a lug nut is stripped........... .. but it kinda hurt the rims....

Can you just use a breaker bar on the nut on the back and try to shear the bolt off the stud? then just punch out the bolt..

[180roman]

are the lips/face/barrels threaded too? i thought it was only a bolt on the front and a nut on the back, if thats the case shouldnt the bolt just fall out?

BBS RS's use bolts and nuts, so in that case the bolt would've just fell out

BBS RM's on the other hand have the rear barels threaded and the front lips are beld on by the bolts screwwed into the barrel, thats what makes this such a PITA of a job if you snap a bolt, kinda like snapping a stud on the engine block

only choose the drilling option if you are 100% confident because the bolts are high tensile steel and the wheel is alloy so 1 slip up and you can ruin a wheel

[audobon]

appreciate the help guys.

i was stressing pretty bad.


anyone got 1 gold RM bolt for sale?

[KarlSpackler]

Drill it out, then there is a number of ways to get it out.

I have had this happen to me a few times as well.
