Hi all
Had to recently purchase a set of 4 Fox FX004 wheels for the Mrs DS3 as three of her standard wheels were buckled.
These were ordered from Rimstyle with the correct DS3 fitment and they supplied a full set of M12x1.25 26mm (60dex / 17Hex) bolts.
Now when fitting the rears this went smoothly (with the new bolts) - however when it came to the fronts, they took an age to tighten (wheel was still fairly loose) and when they were tight the wheels wouldn't rotate. This only happens on both front wheels.
Can I check if I should in fact be using shorter bolts? They obviously are of a different design to the standard bolts so hard to compare.
Any advice would be really appreciated
Thanks in advance
