18” or 19”?

That’s really reassuring - I had a T32 shuttle lowered 50mm on 16inch wheels and it was awful...learnt my lesson. The dealer is going to lower mine 30mm on delivery - over the moon that yours is the same.

yes mine was done by dealer before I picked it up too so you'll likely have the same set up. enjoy

Yes Oem I agree... But the BMW style 132s take a hard beating now that rim does suit a transporter..

I have a 6.1 4 Motion van on order and have been looking at 18" wheels but the Bolt holes in the wheel look small , I would think only a 18mm socket would fit in.
Could someone tell me the head size of the wheel bolt please.
Not the thread the head.
Thanks

When you are referring to oem wheels are normally 17mm is that the steel wheels?

Edit due to miss reading previous post.

ALL OEM wheels use the same wheel bolts.

I’m putting spaces on my cantara wheels so need extension bolts, my standard bolts have the loose collar / seat, would it matter if my extension bots are a fixed seat rather than movable / loose? Cheers

It’s doesn’t matter. You can use either. Personally I like to keep the OEM style with that collar. Normally you can buy the set bolts and spacers.
