True, but there is nothing stopping a subscribed member putting an email address or contact number in their adverts if you want to open it up to registered users ;) Same with For Sale adverts.

What to do? advice & wisdom please!
At a guess I would say there is at least £1000 worth of work that needs doing. If you got it, do it. If not, try selling it but you wont get much im afraid. It is repairable so it would be a shame to scrap it.

HI 300 lovers i need help
There is always the fibreglass option that most people go for. http://www.zcentre.co.uk/shop/product_info.php?cPath=21_22_27&products_id=81 OR you could go with the 99 spec spoiler although it does require more work http://www.zcentre.co.uk/shop/product_info.php?cPath=21_22_27&products_id=300 Fitting the fibreglass version will get rid of the OEM problems of bubbling, cracking and filling with water.

Changing wheel studs for longers one
Ok im sold guys :) Why on earth do they send nuts that are longer than the spacer. what a PITA! :mad: I wonder if its because the nuts are made from alloy rather than something stronger.

Changing wheel studs for longers one
LOL! My question was would a 15mm wheel nut be safe? Not can it be done pete :tongue:
-
Changing wheel studs for longers one
Well you would have thought that is what would come with the kit wouldnt you. Is there enough threads on a 15mm nut for it to be considered safe?
-
Changing wheel studs for longers one
They do mate, but the spacers are 15mm thick and the tapered nuts are 22mm in length. So ive got 7mm of nut + whatever on top for the stud protruding from the spacer which the alloy wheel is sitting on so it wont go flat against the spacer. The wheel isnt touching the stud, its touching the nut
-
Changing wheel studs for longers one
Sorry, its not the studs mate. its the edge of the nuts themselves that the alloys are touching :cry: only about 2mm on every nut. The cut-outs on the alloys will allow for protruding studs, but not the nuts.
-
Changing wheel studs for longers one
Cheers guys :)
-
Changing wheel studs for longers one
Already tried that, but my alloys dont have a cut-out large enough for the protruding nuts and stud. That's right folks, ive got a brand new set of 15mm H&R bolt-on hubcentric spacers coming up for sale soon.
