...darn,
i think wobbly bolts are ones that enadle a joint to move and not be so tight it cant.
if you know what i mean.
like ball joints, they wobble (well kinda)

OK heres the deal with wobbly bolts.
These allow you to fit an alloy to a car which has a PCD "slightly" different to the wheel. So for an example your PCS is 98, and you buy a wheel which is 100. You would then use wobbly bolts to fit it.
Phone R-Tec for more info on monday

BE AWARE YOU CAN NOT FIT LOCKING WHEEL NUTS TO ALLOYS THAT HAVE WOBBLY BOLTS FITTED!!!
Its a very good idea if you really want a wheel but it means that your wheels can be stolen with ease!!

who ever said that you cant fit locking bolts to wheels with wobbly bolts. Thats just sh1t lol, i work at R-Tec and we use wobbly bolts all the time, you can even buy wobbly locking bolts now. Its just a bolt sat in a cupped washer that locates into the wheel giving you slightly different pcd's, like said earlier 98 to 100, also 110 to 112 at times.
