audi lug bolts extended

[s2k-13]

may sound dumb but im trying to get extended bolt lugs for an audi... BUT i cant seem to find some that are right... I MAY BE WRONG but i found some but they keep syaing they work perfect for a 20 mm spacer. I need help if someone can please help me!!

What kind of audi is it?

For the most part the thread pitch is 14x1.5 28mm threaded section ball seat

so for a 20mm spacer you would need
ball seat
14x1.5 thread pitch
48mm threaded section


the seat depends on the wheels though. if you are using a VAG wheel or wheel specifically made for VAG cars then you would need ball seat. some wheels (bmw) use a conical/tapered seat

Well it is an a3 hatch with some 5x112 oem euro wheels.. customer needs it asap :/

im not looking to add a 20 mm spacer.. i just need to put the wheels they match up the stock audi blts just arent long enough

thats odd. well, the stock VAG bolts on the A3 are 28mm. so you can just add whatever length you need to that, and you'll be all set

[s2k-13]

so a 14x1.5 w more than a 48mm length...?

[Average_Jerk]

14x1.5 is the correct pitch. but as far as length, I would measure how much more you need then add that to 28mm. 48mm would work for a 20mm spacer, but since you arent actually adding one i wouldnt jump to lug bolts that long.

all you have to do is take the difference in mm and add it to the bolt length. That way you are assured that you have the proper penetration depth/number of threads for it to be safe. Check the seat type and maintain the oem thread pitch.


Put the stock bolts through the oem wheel and see how much is exposed from the rear hub, then do the same with the new wheel. Then you know the length needed.

How many turns are you getting with the current lugs? Places like BFI, Rotiform, etc. can sell you pretty much any length lug bolt you need.
