Why? I would think that the bolts would be a little more robust. Also easier to replace when some bozo over tightens them with an air wrench. (I never let anyone tighten mine with anything but a torque wrench and I always watch them) With the wheel pilot which fit quite nicely to the hub (to support the weight of the tire while installing the bolt), I have not found any problems with bolts. My '94 Jetta was a pain, though, as you had to support the tire while installing the first bolt. my $0.02 KeithG "Four Weis" <mweinopsamcom> wrote in message news:3A9897F4.58B4CDA1nopsamcom.. > The '90 900S uses lug bolts.
