Hi can anyone help please!

I have just bought a set of wolfrace matrix alloy wheels and tyres for my ford focus 2002. The wheels are 18" but the problem im having is fitting them.

The standard wheel nuts from my ford alloys dont fit the wolfrace ones they dont reach the thread, I have been told i need shank nuts with flat washers.

Is this correct if so do i need short shank or long shank nuts to fit????

Anyone know where i can buy a set to fit???? or any suggestions????

Please help

Shirley you just need longer bolts. Have you done any other mods, as it will look a tad 4x4 if you are just sticking 18in rims instead of the standard 16s

PRI racing hold pretty much every wheel nut or bolt you could need.
