11MM H&R wheel spacers for VH2

Hi All!

Anyone installed 11MM H&R wheel spacers(2265681CR) on his VH2 and can tell me which wheel bolts must be bought?
I am driving a Vantage V8 Coupé (2006) with 235/45ZR18 at the front. The original wheel bolts will be to short now.

Thanks!

with 11mm spacers you can get new nuts which have the thread all the way from the start of the nut thereby picking up a couple of extra turns and so you dont need new bolts

From memory you get 8 full turns on the revised nuts and existing bolts

H&R sell them as do Redpants I believe

I have that spacer kit on my V12S

Aston Martin in Minneapolis fitted them no problem with what came in the kit - stock wheels and tires.

I thought that those spacers were supposed to come with the new nuts as part of the kit (2265681CR)?

I'm assuming the spacers were only installed on the rear. Do the provided nuts match the OEM ones on the front as far as looks? If not, does anyone have a part number for the nuts themselves?

my H&R 11 mm came with nuts.

That's being said, I bought other nuts as well to accommodate 15mm spacers.

Need to look up the site where I bought them
