Hey all... just got my new wheels put on (Ro_Ja LT5's), and had the correct hubcentric rings and all.

Here's my question. They used the stock lug bolts, but I've heard differing opinions on if you need to buy longer ones or not. The people at America's Tire seemed to think they were fine since they used them, but I was just wondering what your thoughts were on the subject, or if anyone knew forsure about this specific wheel setup.

Thanks!

 

The key to the proper bolts is the seat area and the length on the bolt. The seat area is correct (sold Roja's for awhile). The length can be figure by the number of turns the bolt takes. The lug should take 8 full turns to have the proper thread engament...

So back a lug out and then count how many turns it takes before you reach 90 llbs..

 

I received my Ro_Ja LT5 wheels a few weeks ago and they will go on the car tomorrow. I checked the wheels and bolts and came to the conclusion that the stock bolts should work fine. The center area of the LT5's is thinner than the stock wheels making the bolts go deeper into the hubs. I don't see a reason to go with longer bolts based on this plus I'm considering going to studs in the near future anyway...
