Sorry - I would use the search function but I don't know what exactly I'm searching for.

Anyone know where I can get one of these? (See red Circle)



One of mine fell out...

Thanks,

Rivets? I would suggest contacting volk or a rim shop. Maybe even a vendor will be able to help you...

=X There's lots of vendors selling Volks here... I just didn't know if they sold the rivets used in the GT-7s by themselves or if i could get it locally.

Sry for not phrasing question correctly.

Volk uses hex shapped bolts..... take one out and take it to Lowes or
Home Depot and try to find a match.

Also google wheel riviets, I did that once and came across a website that sold rivits & bolts.

Those look like standard socket cap screws. Check the size & thread pitch and you can order them from any online supplier of machine & industrial supplies like MSC and McMaster. Socket caps are higher strength & quality than the normal bolts you find at home depot (Grade 8 at least), so I would stick with quality hardware.

I would check the torque specs too.

Volk / Rays engineering do not use socket caps, they are indeed bolts.
I've taken apart my old Volk GT-Forces to paint the center face before.

Also- I had contacted someone over at Mackin industries ( Volk's U.S distributer ) to find Torque specs and I was told that RAYS does not give them out.
However, when I unbolted mine, I was surprized to see how easy it was to unbolt BY HAND!
So I just tightend them by hand like a MOTHER!.....

Thanks, my bad.

What's the diameter of those bolts? If you know that & the grade you can just look up the torque spec from the Machineries Handbook or any machine design text, there is nothing magic about a torque spec, its just ~75(removable)-90%(permanent) pre-load on the bolt to keep the 2 parts (really) stuck together.
