Anyone got suggestions for replacement wheel bolts? Mine are original and look pretty rusty and manky, which simply won't do.
I bought some wheel bolt covers for them a while back, I did a test fit of just one of them and found it was very tight. Tight is good in term of it not falling off, but it was really hard to get the damn thing off on purpose - I broke the removal tool that came with them when doing so. After that, I decided not to fit any of them as it would be a nightmare when I inevitably end up needing to change a wheel roadside in the dark and pissing rain.
So, I'd rather replace the bolts completely, but with something a bit more aesthetically pleasing (and less prone to rust) than standard.
I think I remember someone posting some trick-looking black bolts on here a while ago, but they were proper expensive....
