my vette had a pretty extensive stereo that I had been working on for a long time, 3 different head units and finally had an alpine double din custom moulded dash to make it fit, 3 different amps to find the right one when it sounded perfect! I tore it all out and sold it!

The OEM lugs are too long, or did you get a set of new bolts? 45mm is the stock lug bolt length.

If they are like most....you will need 28mm. The place you got the wheels from can sell you/tell you which ones you need for those wheels.

You can use either of these. One is version 1 and the other is version 2 color coded and made for cars in inclimate weather (salt and snow causing rusting, etc)
