Maintenance: Changing Wheel bolts?
I tried doing a search on this but couldn't really find anything.
Is it advisable to change the bolts for your wheel on a regular basis (like every couple of years) or is it one of those "use till they snap" kind of thing... ? |

Then it got me thinking the car is 4 years old so should I just replaced the whole thing? I guess I am due for a change, probably going to do a stud conversion... |

Yes, I would be checking the wheel bolts before a DE. It was 1addicts member DriveHard who first reported this... Broken / cracked lugbolts after last Track Day!! pics http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showt...ht=wheel+bolts |

Wow, $150 for 20 bolts? That's nuts......
I'd expect to pay $5 if you're only buying 1 or 2, I'm sure the ones from any aftermarket euro dealer are exactly the same thing but lots cheaper.
