Wow....I'm looking to either replace the bolts which just don't look good (chrome is pitted) or switch to studs and lugs. This is obviously a concern to me. Any suggestions on where to get quality stuff? Or do I put it up on blocks and have them rechromed? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I'm lucky 'cause I run black bolts (just bead blasted and painted them). Find someone selling used OEM ones and either paint or re-chrome them as needed.I'm more concerned with the safety issue, so I'm definitely going to check all of mine to see how straight they are, though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |
