What is this part called?

M14x1.5 Chrome Tapered Wheel Bolt – 40mm Thread

What does this part do on a VW?

This chrome wheel bolt is designed for compatible wheel hubs using an M14x1.5 thread and a tapered wheel seat.

The 40mm thread length makes it suitable for applications where additional thread length is required, such as certain aftermarket alloy wheel installations, wheel spacers or custom brake and hub conversions.

The tapered seat is typically used with compatible aftermarket alloy wheels, helping centre and secure the wheel correctly against the hub when matched with the correct wheel seat profile.

The chrome finish provides a clean appearance where the wheel fixings remain visible.

Please Note

Vehicle model alone should not be used to confirm wheel bolt compatibility. Classic VWs can use different wheel fixing arrangements depending on the year, brake setup, wheels fitted and any hub or spacer conversions.

Tapered wheel bolts are generally used with compatible aftermarket alloy wheels. Please check the wheel seat profile carefully before purchasing, as steel wheels and some Porsche alloy wheels use a radiused seat instead.

The 40mm thread length is longer than a standard wheel bolt and should only be used where the additional length is required. Please check wheel thickness, any spacer thickness and available clearance behind the hub, brake drum or brake disc before fitting.

Correct thread engagement is essential. A bolt which is too long may interfere with internal brake or hub components, so all clearances should be checked before the vehicle is driven.
