Spare-Wheel Mounting Bolt 8K0804899

Secure your space-saving spare wheel with the factory spare-wheel mounting bolt (part 8K0804899). Precision-machined to VAG specifications, this genuine bolt threads into the wheel carrier stud, locking your temporary spare firmly in place for safe roadside use.

Key Benefits

• Exact OEM Fit
  Crafted from VAG CAD data, the thread pitch and shoulder depth match the original wheel-carrier stud for a rattle-free, no-modification install.

• Hardened Steel Construction
  Heat-treated alloy provides high tensile strength to withstand wheel-retention loads under emergency use.

• Corrosion-Resistant Finish
  Durable zinc plating protects against road salt and moisture, ensuring reliable operation when you need it most.
