Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout
The Bimecc VAG Wheel Stud & Nut Conversion Kit with Fitting Kit is a complete motorsport-grade solution designed to improve wheel installation, safety, and long-term reliability, particularly when running aftermarket wheels or wheel spacers.
This version includes a professional fitting kit, ensuring correct thread preparation, secure installation, and long-term safety for performance and track-focused VAG vehicles.
Manufactured in Italy and trusted throughout professional motorsport, Bimecc hardware is engineered to withstand repeated heat cycles, high clamping loads, and frequent wheel removal — making it ideal for road, track day, and performance-focused VW, Audi, SEAT, and Škoda builds.
Why Upgrade to a Stud & Nut Conversion?
For drivers seeking smoother wheel installation, improved aesthetics, and enhanced safety, the Bimecc Stud & Nut Conversion Kit offers a superior alternative to factory wheel bolts.
Key benefits include:
-
Easier and safer wheel installation
-
Improved wheel alignment when fitting spacers
-
Reduced risk of cross-threading hubs
-
Faster wheel changes for track use
-
Consistent and reliable clamping force under high load
Studs act as guides during wheel installation, eliminating the need to rotate the wheel to align bolt holes — particularly beneficial when using spacers or wider aftermarket wheels.
Safety & Security Considerations
When fitting aftermarket wheels or spacers, thread engagement is often reduced, which can compromise wheel security.
-
Aftermarket wheels typically have thicker mounting faces
-
Wheel spacers move the wheel away from the hub face
For example, fitting a 15 mm spacer reduces thread engagement by 15 mm, which must be recovered to maintain safe clamping depth.
While longer wheel bolts are one option, a Bimecc stud and nut conversion is a safer and more convenient alternative, offering improved engagement, easier installation, and greater long-term reliability.
