   Hi i no ive posted this before but havnt got the answer that i need. I need some bolts for my vtr wheels and im pretty sure i need the flat seated with washer ones as there the ones that fit vtr alloys. I just need to know if these are the right ones and also about the right price for what they are as i dont want to get ripped off. Thanks

   Yes they do look like the right ones to be fair, as they are flat seated and include washers, and do say they are vtr wheel bolts. But you never know with stuff off ebay.
   
   And that is a good price, you would usualy pay about £2.70 a bolt from citroen themselves.

   it says there genuine so does that mean there the same as the citroen ones they supply. If you compare it to the one you showed me the middle part looks different have a look and tell me what you think. thanks

   Yeh i've had a look mate. By saying they're genuine they should be the same as citoren ones but as i said you never know with ebay.
   
   They should work, but i'm no expert on wheel bolts, the pic I put up was simply the ones I got from citroen!

    but just to make sure the ones that are flat seated with washers will fit both types of vtr alloys ? Is that middle part on the ebay pic anyhthing to worry about or should i just buy them. thanks

    I thought it was the same bolts for all vtr alloys? I don't think the alloys have changed.
    
    And yeh they do look like they will work, but dont quote me on it!

    Well i'm sure they would both take the flat seated bolts with washers, but someone else might be able to tell you for definate

    ive asked a few times but i get different answers from people. Im pretty sure that your right that the flat seated bolt with washer is used for vtr alloys prob both early and late ones. I just dont understand why these bolts on ebay look different to the one you showed me as there meant to be the same.
