Wheel bolt question!!

Just a quick question, I am about to put some 10mm spacers on my rear wheels and need to know what length/pitch to get. I tried looking up the dimensions but im still not 100% on which ones to order. can anyone lend a hand, or suggest a place to order from?

The diameter is 12 mm, and the thread pitch is 1.5 mm. I don't know what the length of the stock bolts is, though.

You could just get a set of studs, it would be easier.

You can buy spacers that come with longer bolts as well.

Which company makes a 10 mm spacer? I have seen 5 mm, 12 mm, 15 mm etc...

If you are looking for 12mm spacers see: http://www.promini.com/product-exec/...arch_model/100.
I bought my bolts for 16mm spacers from: http://www.radusadirect.com/category...__taper__seat/. If you know the stock diameter, thread pitch and length it should be easy to get longer ones at RadUSA. I hope this info helps.

If you add a 10mm spacer, measure the length of bolt you are currently using and add 10mm
