Someone recently was after info on the right type of wheel bolts to fit the "soccer ball" alloys. Well I checked them out on my Dad's new Sonett at the weekend and will post some pics when he mails them to me.
Basically they are same thread as standard V4 bolts (obviously!) with a long shank about 12-14mm between the head and the thread. This shank is slightly larger diameter than the diam of the threaded part, so the bolt cannot (easily) be pushed through the hole in the wheel - it needs to be screwed & pulled through. There is no tapered part between the 19mm head and the shank, it's a flat face to the base of the head.
