Looking for chromed wheel bolts to fit the RIAL alloys I bought from the forum. Have the originals, but they are black and we had them powder coated in chromium. Also looking for some quality centre caps, not the rubbish off ebay.

Any idea of some online places, or any in the West Country?
 
I have OEM chrome male torx bolts on mine and they’re the best wheel bolts I’ve had on a Mercedes.
 
Don't knock the eBay centre caps. They are good quality and will last a lot longer than OEM ones.
Plus they are a fraction of the price of OEM.

I bought some and they were simply plastic clip ons with a stick on Mercedes Badge.

Happy if you've got a link to better ones, just couldn't fnd them.

These are longer than stock from memory, but I'll take a look, thanks.
I have bought from here previously
Thanks, will check these out too.

I bought mine some time ago x2 so don't have a link now.
I've never seen any aftermarket ones with stickers on a plain wheel cap but your experience tells me they are out there.

Got a set of Black/chrome Affalterbach copy centre caps never used if you are interested. £15 posted. Excellent quality and no stickers;)

I think they'll be too big. From memory (will pop to the garage tomorrow), mine are about 60mm (RIAL KBA40715).
 
^ No problem. Let me know if your are interested.

I doubt you'd get any aftermarket Mercedes centre caps with a 60mm diameter anyway. ( Unless they have a sticker on a plain 60mm cap ;)
Come to that, I don't believe MB sell any centre caps that size either.:dk:

They are for Rial KBA 40715 Lattice wheels, which have a slightly smaller, some might say snug, fitting.

You could always fit wheel bolts covers/caps in chrome. I appreciate it is not everyones cup of tea, but is a very simple solution to unsightly wheel bolt heads.

the ebay ones i brought have lasted around 4/5 years, so worth a buy !
