hey again..
the nice JGE folks in england replied to my email and gave me this bit of info that will be needed..

"The bolts are just a wheel bolt with a 60 degree taper, you should be able to get them"

so cool.. anybody know where i would be able to find such shiny items..?
cheers paul

any mag wheel shop or car accessory store.
I think mine were 25mm long, and I had to cut off about 5mm cos they hit on the brake internals.
