Hi, driving home last night rear passengerside wheel decided to try and part company with the car:shock!! Managed to pull over safely and re fix the wheel, fortunately 4 of the bolts were still in place( just! ). Does anyone have 5 spoke 'RG' alloys fitted to their G? The alloys are not MB but same roughly age as the truck, MB dealer who supplied the truck new, thinks they were fited in 84. My local alloy specialist is at a loss to find RG listed, basicaly Im just after a replacement bolt(s) or would MB ally bolts be ok?

alloys use a longer bolt than steels and if there are spacers longer still ...what length bolt do you need as I have a selection ??
