Wheel Hub
 
I`d like to order already wheels though it will take around 50 days until I get my car with the official release in germany.
Decided for OZ Alleggerita in 17x7,5 +48 for a maximum of weight saving.

My question: Is the wheel hub already with bolts/nuts or are the wheels fixed with screws?

Thanks,
Gerd

the terms you are looking for are

STUDS or BOLTS

Studs are attached to the hub and the wheel is fastened with nuts

Some cars use bolts, so the hubs have threads in them.

Our cars come with studs

You MAY require a different NUT to go with your new wheels, but I would ask the manufacturer as to what angle/shape nut their wheel takes and then compare to the OEM wheel.


There are no wheels out there that use SCREWES as fastners, LOL.

Thank you. I can order the specific nuts to this wheel from my dealer, just wanted to know if the car already comes with studs. Now I just have to know which thread pitch/diameter the studs are going to have here.

Sorry for my poor knowledge. Altough I know already many car specific terms in english, this one was new to me. But I keep on learning.

No problem.

The studs are Subaru standard at M12x1.25.
