I just picked up a set of Brabus V one piece 18x8.5 et 35 and I need bolts. Do Brabus wheels use cone seated bolts? How long should I need?
Thanks.

Brabus and all mercedes wheels uses ball seated bolts. You would need to measure how much your oem one sticks out and then measure how much longer you need for the Brabus wheels.

not always true, the lorinsers I had on my E55 had tapered, not ball, seats, and the center bore was larger than the Mercedes one, same thing with brabus rims on my dad's E500.

Can you take pics of your brabus rims on your dad's E500? I want to see the bolts.
Which Brabus is this?
I know my Brabus comes with ball seated lugs. These are authentic Brabus wheels.
Which Lorinsers do you have? can I see the bolts?

I'll kill two birds with one stone:

the brabus ones(not sure which model) have ball seats, but the center bore is larger than the hub. lorinsers(also dont know the name of this model) have tapered seats and the center bore is also larger that MB's one. for both rims we had to use the hubcentric rings. both rims are authentic
