Is there like a correct way, or safe way to do this? I don't want to be using the wrong equipment and put myself and other people at risk.
Yup, just surprised they didn't carry any for 5 bolts car  |
I should've attached something like this... this will probably make it much easier to visualize.
Generally, you can visually tell the difference...
Kind of hard to explain in words, comes with a little bit of experience.
You can take one of your OEM ball-seat bolts and test fit it in one of the bolt holes. If it fits snug and straight, it will work. A bolt in the wrong seat will not fit snug and because it will only contact a thin circle all the way around, it will wobble when you test fit the bolt.
You can PM me a close-up photo of the bolt holes of your rims and i can help decipher it
Sorry I don't remember what CT carries but they carry the wheel bolts and nuts in packs of four.
