Default Wouldn't you need the conical kit for stock and the ball seat for the BBS'?

I know I use cone seat on my OEM wheels and ball seat on my Oettys

Default BBS use conical bolts.

Mostly. CH's are conical.

Your Oettinger wheels use a different sized ball seat bolt. 24mm diameter ball. Audi uses a 26mm diameter ball.

I've seen the $200 set- they're either the same length or very close.
