VW wheel lug covers with different Lug bolts.

[Ludey849]

Question is for people running spacers with extended lug bolts.

Any of you able to still use the oem lug bolt cover? Wana get a flush kit but would want to keep those covers on.

Asked ecs tuning about their kit and they said negative.

They will fit as long as the new lug bolts are 17mm, and they most likely will be. The stock lug bolts have an indent on the top so the cover can be pulled off with the hook tool. If the longer bolts don't have the indent they will be harder to remove, or you can get bolt covers that have a "lip" on the outer edge and use a different tool for removal.
Make sure you get the correct bolts: OEM wheels use ball seat, most after market use cone seat.

I took them off as they're cosmetic.

Yeah, ditch those silly things. Some tracks won't allow them anyway.
