Do I Need Longer 2023 BMW X7 Wheel Bolts for 8mm Spacers BONOSS Forged Aftermarket G07 Lug Bolts Safe (2)

Yes, longer 2023 BMW X7 wheel bolts are necessary to secure rim spacers safely. Tire engineers explain that only if the bolt thread is long enough can the bolts provide proper clamping force to keep these 2023 BMW X7 wheel spacers and wheels balanced. The general rule of thumb is that the thread length must be equal to or greater than the diameter of the bolt itself. Giving an example, an M14 wheel bolt would need at least 14mm threads to ensure a safe engagement.

However, it is not the longer the better. If the 2023 BMW X7 wheel bolts are too long, they may damage the bearings and can’t properly fasten the wheels. Getting the correct extended 2023 BMW X7 wheel bolts for your BMW spacers is critical with regard to safe wheel installation. As a guideline claims, you need at least 7 turns (preferably 8 turns) from start to torque. So, make sure you have the proper number of turns after adding wheel spacers.

How Long 2023 BMW X7 Wheel Bolts Do I Need for Spacers?

Simply, 15mm spacers occupy about 15mm bolt shank which stops the stock 2023 BMW X7 wheel bolts from engaging the full thread depth of the bearing. For instance, if the OE wheel bolt length is 27mm and you get a 15mm wheel spacer installed, it’s probably best to order 42mm bolts right away (stock bolt length + spacer thickness = required wheel bolt length). Since the mounting plate of an aftermarket wheel can be thicker, you may need new 2023 BMW X7 wheel bolts a little longer than those.

You can measure this for yourself. Take off one wheel you want to use, and stick one of your stock lug bolts in one of the 5 lug holes. Then measure the exposed thread stem on the back side of the wheel. Assuming the result is 12mm, if you use 10mm spacers, you need 22mm of extension. Since you no longer use the OEM 2023 BMW X7 wheel bolts, it is important to ensure the seat type is correct. At BONOSS, we have lined up proper BMW wheel bolts for 5mm up to 20mm spacers.
