  View original topic: Cosmo wheels - lug bolt length
Adski Sun Nov 01, 2015 8:45 pm

Hi all,
I've just picked up a set of 4 lug cosmic wheels.
After lots of searching i've found that I apparently need 14 x 1.5 lug bolts.
however, i cannot find anything that tells me what length my lug bolts need to be and i see there are a few different lengths available. Does anybody know what length bolts I need?

It's a late type 3 with 4 lug front discs/rear drums.

Thanks!

I measured for myself the longer lug bolts I needed for my 2.0 liter aluminum wheels & then ordered them. I believe I measured for them to extend through the drum/rotor 1/4" or 1/2"? http://www.ezaccessory.com/Lug_Wheel_Bolts_s/20.htm Your aluminum wheels can be measured/compared to the stock steel wheels for lug bolt length.

Thanks for the reply.
I measured my existing lugs. They are 20mm long.
They extend through the stock wheels 18mm.
However they only extend through the cosmics 10mm.

I presume that means that I need lug bolts approx 28-30mm long.
