Hi all
I bought a set of '206' wheel from ebay that have an offset of 18, rather than the standard 25. My question is do i need to fit longer bolts to compensate for the fact? The standard flat washer bolt thread is going 8mm into the hub.
Many thanks, mark

first you need to check if you wheels have flat seat or taper seat.
Then you will have to measure the thread length; in my memory for taper bolt you need 25mm thread and for flat seat bolt you need 32mm thread (for et25); so in your case you will need 7-10mm longer bolt
