Wheel Bolt Length when fitting spacers

[Trickythemerc]

Hi All. I have ordered Eibach wheel spacers for my CLK 20 mm for the rears and 15 mm fronts. What length of bolts do I need to use with them. Eibach list just one bolt for use with spacers ? Will I be able to use my existing locking bolts or do they need to be changed ?

New bolt length = Original bolt length + the width of the spacers.

Hi Kenny. I understand that, but can't find anything listed anywhere.

Hi Kenny. I understand that, but can't find anything listed anywhere.

When i needed longer bolts i got them from the place (Skidz) i bought the wheels from , most alloy wheel suppliers should be able to sort you out with a set as they must have similar issues on a daily basis.

Hi Kenny. I understand that, but can't find anything listed anywhere.

I assume you mean for the OEM/current wheel bolt? If so you'd be best putting up more than just CLK, model, year and I'm sure someone will be able to suggest.

Also surely the eibach spacers come with bolts. I've installed a few kits now on various cars and they've all come with suitable bolts
