Default Wheel bolts and stud conversions

We're in the process of changing over the RallyRep to wheel studs, one reason is to accept the alterations to the cars track, but it's also slightly out of necessity really... Only the wheel bolts are like this...



Whilst the R8 Alloy wheels should have radius seat bolts... So put simply, the wheel bolts aren't actually sitting correctly to hold the wheel. The stud conversion nuts will be the correct radius type.



The back face of the alloy will be fitted with Eibach 15mm spacers through the stud conversion. So this should give an ET of about 22.

Will be good to be a bit fatter again.
