14x1.5 is correct. If you aren't sure about if your bolts are proper, go to Ace Hardware and get a metric bolt of the same size/thread and compare.

I recently bought a new set of wheel bolts which were made by Superformance in the UK, they only had the rears in my correct size. I sent my old bolts off to be plated, so I do not have access to them. I tried on one of the new bolts in the rear hub and it seemed very loose and wobbled about 1/16" to each side. Since I do not have my original bolts handy I cannot compare them.

Does anyone have their wheels off a 308 and can check and see how loose the bolt is in the rear hub? I know there has got to be a thread expert out there. Oh the Superformance wheels have the threads chrome plated BTW.

The size is 14mmx 1.5

Thanks,

Rob
