Brabus wheels and lugbolts on my C43 AMG
#Hi last summer I bought Brabus Monoblock V (5) from a friend who owns a Brabus stylingshop here in Sweden, I haven't put the new wheels on the car yet, I will do it when it gets warmer in Spring. Here is the question: Do my original oem lugbolts which are now on my oem 17 inch AMG wheels the right size for Brabus 18 inch wheels, do the fit correctly or do i have to buy new lugbolts, it's the lenght of the lugbolt i'm interested to know about if it fits my oem 18 INCH BRABUS MONOBLOCK V, the car is a C43 AMG
#Tire size is 225/40/18 front 8,5 wide
#Tiresize is 255/35/18 rear 9,5 wide
#Do the oem lugbolts come in 2 different sizes for the front wheels and the rear wheels? Meaning diffrent lenght.
#ARE THEY PAN HEAD OR CONEHEAD?
Giddy up yupp yupp
Thank god it's Friday cheers mates

2004 E55 AMG Silver/Black - stock (at the moment)
OEM bolts front/rear are same length, and doesn't matter if they are pan or cone shape - its more important how many turns the bolt will allow to have a safe wheel installation.
My C36 is running OEM AMG 18" 2 piece (8.5" front and 10" rear). I cut the OEM Bolts 3/4" shorter.
But these are AMG wheels. So to get accurate measurement for your Brabus, insert the bolt on your OEM wheel, count the thread (sticking out). Now insert the same bolt on your Brabus wheel, count the thread. Thread count must equal the same on your Brabus as OEM wheel. If not custom cut or order correct size.
Hope this helped!
