Not the most complex part number but it's BOLT-301

I am in Canada, makes things harder i guess. Trying to find a local source, do you happen to know the spec of those bolts?

Didn't count yet.. but even at $1 each, it will be over $100 for all i think.

5/16 - 18 but they're only 3/8 long. I looked all over and the shortest I ever found was 5/8 length. You'd probably have to grind them down. If you do find any let me know. Method is pretty steep on their price and an alternative would be nice.

That was just a quick google search. I'm sure there are others out there- may be cheaper/better.

I've only checked local, RE Fasteners, Fastenal etc.. Those button heads would great on the standard. I dont like how the regular bolt protrudes so far.

Can someone give me a brand/model of socket with a thin enough wall to replace these bolts? I've tried four different ones, all mar the paint. Thanks.

Any good replacement bolts for the method NV wheels that will NOT rust? Only half way through the winter, all the bolts are rusted pretty bad already. And I am on west coast don't see much salt on the road!

These are not black oxide where the finish will come off after one wash? I like how they are black and wonder how the finish holds up to off-road abuse.
