Re: Wobble bolts
Ok, so I got the wobble bolts:

Here's how they wobble:


Here's what they look like bolted on the car @ 100 ft/lbs. I drilled the bolt holes to ~16mm (actually 5/8 because they don't sell a 16mm metal drill bit locally). Brakes clear fine, and even though they are ET35 (stock is ET45) they don't look tucked at all:

And then here they are on the car:


Yay for wobble bolts! Quattro rocks with winter tires.

Re: Wobble bolts
so the wobble bolts do work i have those same wheels any way the same looking wheels i was thinking of running on my passat for winter wheels but the bolt pattern on my wheels are 5x100 and 5x114.3 probably the same as those. how much did the wobble bolts run you?

Re: Wobble bolts
$90 for a set of 20. You need to run hubcentric rings too, and they were about ~$15 for a set of 4 - these wheels were a 73.1 -> 57.1 . No spacers.
