madtheswine99 Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Just got a set of 17" wheels,havent been able to try them yet,but wanted to know will i need longer wheel bolts or will the original ones do. Need to know before i start taking wheels off and wasting time. Quote
paul.h Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Why not remove one bolt and put it through the new wheel and see if it sticks out as far as on the old wheel, or is there more to it than that ? Quote
madtheswine99 Posted January 25, 2011 Author Posted January 25, 2011 Just thought someone may have already done this.The wheels are 7" compared to the 6.5" original.The amount of space does look as if they will work,just wanted someone's opinion if they had already done this.Thanks Quote
