Basically if you put the RS500 wheels on with S1 bolts, then the bolts will simply pull through the wheels, causing significant damage. You can buy bolts with different angled flanges on them, or do what I have on my cars, which is to convert them to studs. Then use normal alloy nuts as found on most Fords from 1990 onwards.
