Wheel bolts

Post by stevenlizuk »

Just bought a set of Pug alloys from a 406 for my 406 which has steel wheels.

Do I need new bolts or will my original bolts be ok?

Cheers

Yep, new bolts will most likely be required. it all depends on whether they are standard Pug alloy sor aftermarket. If you've got standard Pug alloys then you'll need some Pug studs as these have flat faces on to fit against the ehweels, wheereas your steel ones will likely be a 60 degree taper.

Most Peugeot bolts will fit, however 406 studs have a longer hexagonal shaft than most other models.

No probs. God my spelling was atrocious in that last post! Can't even blame it on the bleeding booze either as I was at work, but shouldn't really have been on t'interweb so was typing rather fast. :oops:
