Anti Theft Wheel Bolt?

**wh431** · 20-09-2008,05:05 PM

Hi Fellas,

while cleaning my ( i mean my cars) wheels today i noticed that one of the Anti-theft Bolt is missing on passenger side front wheel.

Am not sure what could have happened, may be some idiot did a half attempt at stealing the wheel

Anyone know where to get a spare one? What's the part no?

Cheers

Whilst on the subject of anti theft wheel bolts, does anyone know where I could get a set that fits 8x18" OZ Superturismo GT with spacers for my B6 Passat? The standard anti theft bolts are too short (they only go on one thread!!) so I didnt bother putting them on, but I don't wnat my wheels stolen!!

How thick are your spacers?

Thanks for the quick response. I really don't know about the spacers. The spacers I have are too small so I'm going to get the correct ones this week. I'll post when I find out the sizes.

I lost one from a front wheel as well, put it down to not being torqued down correctly when new front tyres were fitted.
According to the dealers there are several patterns of head design on the anti-theft bolt, take your socket in to parts dept and they will either have them on stock or should get it by the following day.

McGards do longer bolts
