RS4 Replicas, mistake

RS4 Replicas, mistake
yesterday I installed my rs4 replicas with oem center caps, looks beautiful. But I made a mistake, I used the original bolts, and when I wanted to move the car, it seemed like the handbrake was engaged. I used the original bolts because they are longer than the ones supplied with the wheels. I will be installing them again tonight, with the correct bolts, they just seem a little short. Hope I`m in the right path

if they required different bolts
and you were using longer ones they probably went all the way through and locked up your wheels. Why wouldn't you have at least tried the correct bolts first? :-\

I started in the back and the car had spacers, so i thought
it would be better to have longer ones, then I got exited on how they looked and continued on all corners. Well, back to work tonight.

Hopefully.. you don't have the same problem I had...
See this thread... I had to use (and am still using) 3mm spacers on the front - huge PIA.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/1871302.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/1871302.phtml</a</li></ul>

Thanks s4wanabe, I saw your link, lucky me the problem was

In the back I let the spacers that were on the original wheels, but I will take them off, the wheel is far too outwards, and it has a 30 offset. Here are some pictures, not very good ones but they`ll do.
