    Hi All,

    I was just wondering, for those with rotiform wheels, can we use the OEM wheel bolts?

    Thanks,

    Mike

    Do they have the same seat, ie. conical versus ball? You could probably call AWE also.

    No, Rotiforms use a cone seat and our OEM wheels use a ball seat.

    i was looking at a set of Nue, but no more uk supplier of Rotiform as it stands, they parted company with their U.K reseller, i think it had something to do with them using customers wheels for promo photo shoots on their cars with out permission.

    I ordered lug bolts from Rotiform when I got my wheels from them. They are a different length and shape than OEMs.
