The thread of the lockdown bolt is a double pitch thread, so don't use a bolt from the hardware store or you strip the thread.

I recently acquired a matching alloy wheel to use as a spare instead of the steel wheel with the odd sized tyre. I haven’t yet got round to getting a tyre for it but I can say with certainty that I would be wholly unable to extract it from the boot if needed! I’d have to call the breakdown service. My reason for going to the bother of a matching wheel and tyres was that if I got a puncture while towing my car trailer, I would not want to use the odd sized spare for any distance. I would much prefer to have the matching wheel fitted. The punctured tyre could hopefully then be repaired without the additional hassle of refitting it straightaway. |
