Wobble Bolts Q

[peez]

Yes, I am noob. Flame suit on.
I have an Audi with 5x112 PCD. Wobble bolts allow me to put on 5x114.3 w/o adapters?
How? Someone care to explain?

i run 5x114 on my a4 using wobble bolts, so yes it will work. i got mine from raderworks, they used to have a video showing how it works but i cant find it anymore.

[hamersmt]

they work by having the threads move independently from the actual head of the bolt. this allows the tapered part of the bolt to sit down inside the wheel, while the threads are not actually centered inside the wheel.

Safety concerns?

ive never had any issues with mine, i used to check the torque on them weekly but i stoped since it was always were it was suposed to be.

114.3-112 = 2.3mm total difference. That's 1.15mm difference each way. You'll be fine.

where do one find wobble bolts?

perfect because i have 114.3 and my new wheels are 100/112

some multi lug wheels require tuner lugs/bolts...in that case you can't run wobbles, i sold my set so i cant measure em up on the outside to see but to be honest i doubt they will fit.

wobble bolts are safe, I think saab uses them on their cars?

Saab uses the lose seat because they had a problem with rims cracking, and they are not that wobbly.

Hey guys, I'm to This forum too, sorry :s but does this mean vw 5x100 cars can use vw/Audi just by using wobble bolts and no adapter :s , tiny bit confused.

No 5x100 to 5x112 is too large a difference for wobble bolts to handle
but 5x112 to 5x114.3 is possible with wobble bolts.
