I'd be careful about using those bolts. I had them originally on mine but after a short while I started hearing creaking sounds coming from the outside. Turns out that the chamfer angle isn't quite correct on these bolts compared to the stock bolts so there's not a complete "contact" between the wheels and the bolts resulting in these coming loose occasionally. Just be sure to keep a close eye on these. I ended up removing them and going with the OEM black bolts instead.

I had them on my Carrera and Cayman for over a year without any issues. I hope that I can say the same with the 997TT.
