Running a 12mm spacer on an Audi or VW platform reduces effective thread engagement with stock lug bolts to the point where safe installation becomes a real concern. APR's 40mm lug bolts are engineered specifically to pair with 12mm spacers, restoring full thread depth into the hub and ensuring the wheel assembly is retained by proper bolt engagement — not a marginal fraction of it.
Cone seat design matches the taper geometry of VW and Audi alloy wheels across MQB and MLB platform fitments. Black finish provides corrosion resistance in the wheel well environment. At 40mm shank length, these bolts are sized for 12mm spacer applications — they will produce excessive protrusion without a spacer in the stack. Sold as a set of 10.
