[QUOTE="singlespeed, post: 163934, member: 264"] Wheel bolts don't support or center the wheel on the hub, they just keep it clamped inplace. The hub spiggot which sticks out of the hub, locates in the hole in the center of the wheel to keep the rim and tyre centered about the hub. If it was off center, then you would get a lot of vibration and put stress on the suspension and wheel bolts. If the hole in the wheel is less than 60.1mm (Twingo size) then it simply won't fit on the hub. If its larger, there will be no support unless centering rings are used to reduce it... Most aftermarket wheels come with a large center bore (67mm is common) and they will be supplied with 67-60.1mm centering rings or whatever is required. [/QUOTE]
