How long do you need them?

Porsche used 70mm wheelbolts with the ATS 15" cast BBS lookalike Basketweave wheels.

The only problem is, 70mm wheelbolts are expensive. I think I priced them at about $20 a piece from Porsche years ago. Your best bet would be to see if another 924.org Boardmember has a set for sale. You only need to buy 12 if you use wheel locks (can you believe wheel locks cost less than the damn 70mm wheelbolts?).

If you can use 68mm'ers, this place lists them with the Porsche seat type -

Hi

A stupid question here. Is the 70mm the thread length or the whole bolt length?

Thread length unless it's a flathead screw.
