HELP - Late night paranoia
For reasons that I in all honesty it would take way too long to explain. I installed some 19'' Volk TE-37's on my new DB Touring (taken off my old SC Touring - long story)
First the "sixth bolt" had me scratching my head. Am I correct in concluding from various threads hat this is a relatively superfluous appendage and I'm safe without it?
Second - when the volks were originally installed on the SC by the shop that did the mounting and balancing, I cannot for the life of me remember if they went onto Volk lugs, or onto stock. This time around I just ploughed on with the stock, did I make a significant error?
Hopefully can put my ailing mind at rest.

PS They do look awesome on the DB

Regarding the sixth bolt, I believe you must remove it. It is there to keep the front wheels from being rotated with the rears.
I was told by 350Mods that it was not a good idea to use stock lugs with Volks, and that they can indeed cause harm. I believe Volk lugs (1.25) are rather uncommon, so make sure you're using them with your TE-37s.
