Could someone do a quick ETKA check for me?

[Huw Powell]

As long as the 6mm more unthreaded part doesn't create a problem 
(running out of threads while tightening) they ought to be fine - since 
they are also suspension bolts they'll be the appropriate grade of steel.

They'll just stick out a bit further.

Of course, you could carefully cut 6mm more threads on them (use plenty 
of cutting oil!) and cut 10 mm off the end...
