Re: [T3] Wheel bolts and after market wheels

<x-flowed>This has happened to me, twice! The first time was in my 73 Variant, I had newly painted steel wheels on, and all four wheels came loose! Luckily I managed to pull over before they fell off.

Handy to remind people that if you paint your wheels expect them to loosen again
if you leave a paint layer in the hollow where the lug bolts seat.  Clean the
paint off the wheel bolt seating.
