    Wheel bolts and spacers

    Think this section will be ok. Anyway I picked up some 25mm aluminium wheel spacers, my mate just rang me and asked if I had aluminium bolts to go with them? As steel bolts are stronger than aluminium, and as such, would ruin the spacers, and potentially make the wheels fall off :rolleyes...
