stick stock bolt through stock rim, measure how far it sticks through the back side.
stick stock bolt through new rim, tell me that dimension out the back side and we can order you the correct lug bolts
or stick the new bolts you ordered through the new rims and compare to the stock length sticking through, they need to be the same on the rears or you will make contact with the ebrake
Hi Rob,
Thanks for your post and for the clear instructions as to how I can determine the proper bolt length for mounting my new wheels. My supplier is sending me (what they believe to be) the correct lug bolts for these wheels. I will use the method you describe to determine if the bolt length is correct before actually mounting the new wheels. Thanks again . . . I appreciate your expertise and willingness to always share your knowledge . . .
