Have you noticed any reduced steering self-centering?

A bit off subject but what size bolts go through the universal group 4 coupling. I have tried M8 but the seem too large for the groove on the column extension. Should I be using imperial sized bolts?

(I think i referring to a pinch bolt)

M8 is working for me. It does require exact alignment with the centre of the groove of the splined shaft and it's a tight fit.
