Are there different length spare tire hold down bolts? Mine doesn't seem to secure the alloy wheel fully in place even with the plate flipped over.....

I don't know this for certain...
but always assumed that with a steel wheel spare the longer bolt would work just fine and so many of these cars came with steel wheels (sometimes placed there by the dealer even) that I assumed the dealers changed the bolt to work with the wheel and narrow tire they were selling today, everyone puts a 5th alloy wheel into the well that has a much different tire than came on these cars stock I assumed that was the reason the stock bolts often don't work. |
