997 Wheel Bolts..
The search function on Rennteam is a PITA and I'm struggling to find them. Can anyone help please.
[edit]
Changed to Wheel Bolts, not studs. lol
Quote:I can't remember the actual wieght but it's more like 8oz per wheel not 8lb.

oh jeez, that's them. lol... A little more expensive than I thought! Save 8lb's a wheel lose Pounds125.00 per wheel. Actually thats cheaper than buying a new set of wheels.
Someone on this forum bought a set and it came in a case with all the studs protected by sponge.

Titanium - you were close. Over $1,000 a set now when you can find them.

Quote:I couldn't determine from your first post about these bolts when you mentioned they would fit wheels with and without spacers - are they the same length as the OEM bolts or are they longer to take into account use of spacers?

They've just arrived this morning as I thought I'd buy them and see what they are like. They're not bad I don't suppose, not entirely satisfied knowing I'd rather of had those Titanium ones but they are better than the stock bolts which are terrible, aesthetically speaking of course.
Not sure when I'll put them on because when I do I want to clean the wheel under the wheel arches and get a few coats of wax on the wheels. Just need a trolley jack and a Torque Wrench now.... lol

Just put a bolt in the front and everything seemed to go fine. However, the thread on the new bolts looked to be about 1mm longer, just for your information which makes the new bolt thread 25mm long.
