Wheel Bolt Alignment Tool

Wheel Bolt Alignment Tool A longstanding customer of ours enquired about a wheel bolt alignment tool last week. This is a tool that screws into one of the bolt holes on your hub and allows you to place the alignment tool through one of the holes of your wheel so that the wheel can be aligned correctly.

Now most Audi's come with these, but they are plastic and after a few uses the thread wears out and you have to throw it away.

With alloy wheels getting heavier and bigger to handle, this handy little tool is a must have for your toolbox, better still why not get 2 to make it even easier! These particular wheel bolt alignment tools are made from high tensile steel and zinc plated for durability.

We are not able to source these but we have found a good supplier who can sell them direct for just £7.99 each including free postage and packing! Please contact seller direct for bulk discounts and fitment availability.

Replica Wheels are dead

R.I.P replica wheelsLong live original wheels!

After 10 years, replica wheels have finally been killed off through a series of high court actions against the manufacturers of these wheels, brought by the likes of BMW, Mercedes and Porsche.

Arriving on our shores in late 2000, replica wheels changed the face of the aftermarket wheel business and, due to the high price of original, genuine wheels, people bought replica wheels to help save money. The first replica wheels that came to the UK were made in Italy and were of very good quality and were quite expensive, averaging £150 a wheel for an 18" replica wheel. However, when wheels that were made in the Far East (China, Indonesia) arrived they were selling for £70-£80 each and the quality was poor.

With BMW and Mercedes now taking tough action on anyone selling these wheels, most of the suppliers have now stopped importing them. Original wheels, although expensive, is now the way to go if your are looking at replacing the wheels on your Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche or VW.

We stock sets of original equipment alloy wheels, mostly these wheels have been refurbished and are complete with tyres. Have a look through our stock and if we do not have what you are looking for, send us an enquiry.
