Do you have longer bolts for use with wheel spacers?

Yes, we can accomodate the bolts for people running wheel spacers and having lengths over OEM. Just let us know the specs and we will be able to manufacture the right size lugs for you. Here is an example for a recent Ferrari customer running spacers.

Left +15mm | Right +11mm

I'm looking for bolts to fit with 7mm front spacers and 14mm rear spacers. What's the price versus the specials you have on your site? I'm interested in locking lugs but they're not really necessary if the price is going to be that much more. I'll just use regular lugs all around if the price is much extra.

I heard this somewhere........

That you have to torque 30% LESS than Porsche standard due to galling. Can you confirm?

This is a no no according to Newport Porsche Techs.............

We recommend the use of anti-seize to help prevent galling and to torque our Lugs to OEM Porsche settings.

No disrespect to TiKORE. Don't know where I got mine - but was expensive, and don;t care to look up. Will switch back to OEM lug bolts next time in shop. Had 3 aftermarket ones that broke off during service/tire switch/etc.,. My Indi tells me he commonly sees "non-rust" lug bolts that get broken off during service. He laughs and said he had never seen OEM ones brake off like that - for me cheaper to replace rusted ones after few years than $$ cost to retrieve the broken ones etc., Hope TiKORE ones fair better in real world.
