    Default Where to order replacement Style 5 bolts?

    Title says it. Where can I order a new complete set of the bolts that hold together a Style 5 rim?

    You could try BBS but I'll bet it's gonna be mundo expensive.

    Maybe a wheel repair place?

    When i redid a set of them a couple years ago I gave up trying to find new. They are spined at the top of the shaft so you cannot use the more common BBS RS bolts. I ended up painting mine. I They are actually painted from the factory. I cleaned each of them on the wire wheel, and them popped holes in a cardboard box to stick each bolt in and painted them. they came out real nice

    Does that mean it's safe to reuse them?

    Unless they show damage I would not hesitate to reuse them

    There is no way in hell those are 17s. Measure them, I'm not even joking dude, because if those are 17s then I have 16s.
