F30 Spacers - Need extended lug bolts. Any info?
 
I'm looking for 4 sets of extended lug bolts for a F30 335i.

Need to be 14mm x 1.25 size.

Anyone know where to get a set?

Extended Wheel Bolt for BMW, MINI - 14x1.25 - Black - E70, F01, F10, F25, F30, MINI R56 - Turner Motorsport

I know some of the H&R spacers will include the extended bolts too

Would you by any chance know any local stores that may carry it?

Local BMW/VW/Euro tuner shops will carry these. CG, Nixon, PG Performance, RPI etc.

Don't forget to make it very clear what length you need.

I've played around with extended bolts, had some that were too long and didn't seat on the wheel correctly, and they locked the hub in place. (Couldn't move the car as hub couldn't turn)

Find out your stock length bolt, then add the spacer width to it. Should give you a rough number length.

Other shops:
Shift Autosport, VM Autohaus, Hansig Automotive Centre

I'm sorta Ricey, but I plan on getting these when I get aftermarket wheels:
Evasive Motorsports | PH: 626.336.3400 Mon-Fri, 9am-6pm PST: Mevius Lug Bolts - Blue Neon

They are available with CONICAL and BALL seats. As well as different Thread sizing and LENGTH.

They are the only "Colored" lug bolts I've seen. Saw photos of it installed on Silver RPF1s and it looked great! Only the BLUE portion shows up ;D

Again, I'm ricey and those are pricey! Hope it helps though ;D

EDIT: and they also have black colored I think if blue is too much for you. They are cheaper in black.

Ok. Sounds good, thanks guys!

H&R should make some too. I know they aren't cheap though. You probably don't want to buy cheap lugs anyways, last thing you want is for them to snap and your wheels fall off or something.

Essex Distributors - H&R Springs

Got mine at PG performance. H&r bolts. I think they were 4 bucks a bolt. Just head in and anyone there will help you out, and worst case scenario, pull one bolt out when you get there if you can't figure out what length you need.

Sadly, it seems most ricers want to cheap out on suspension... and they wonder why they lose control of their car and crash..?!

I called nixon, and they quoted 4.50/bolt. I guess I never realized how much bolts cost!
