    WTB/Looking for Work Wheel Assembly Bolts

    I got a hold of some old Work Ewing Mesh Wheels. While disassembling I found the assembly bolts are M8x30/32. They use a torx head on the outside and 12mm hex head nuts on the inside. Does anyone have or know where to find bolts of this size meant for wheel assembly (i.e. 12 point or torx heads)? BBS and Works are all M7xYY size. I know I could reuse them, but I've already had 1 on each wheel start to strip, I'd rather replace them all with minty hardware. As well, would M7s suffice or will the lack of 1mm in diameter of each bolt not be enough?



    Here is a pic of the wheels just to whore them out :)


    Thanks

              Tried ebay and several bolt companies. The problem is the face is indented for the bolt's flange. Picked up a few BBS RS or BBS something tonight (M7x32) and they nearly fit, but the flange is too large.

                Have you tried emailing/calling work wheels directly?

                  Yep, the best they could tell me is that the bolts are M8x30 and their bolts won't work.
