Spare Wheel Bolts - Fixed Seat

[Jimmer]

Hi,

I stupidly slammed my offside front tyre (a 3 month old ContiSport, grr) into a kerb yesterday.

I put on the spare wheel with the same bolts, then realized that there is instruction to use the fixed seat bolts in the plastic box that contains the wheel nut key.

Does anyone know if there is any major risk to using the floating seat bolts?

Need to wait a few days for the new tyre so will change bolts if need be.

Thanks,

James.

When I ran 4 steelies I used the same bolts, should probably change them but I didn't have any problems

I didnt seem to have any problems driving a few miles to the garage and back to get a tire when I did it but again thatwasa few miles down the road
