Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My front lug bolts are a little rusted, so wanted to replace them. This is on a 2001 996 Carrera 2, running 18s in summer and 17s in winter. The lug bolts should be standard, correct? Does anyone know the right MM? I just want the regular Porsche OEM. Thanks, Ross

POST 2Original post

Why not re-paint them and then get a "soft" lug nut socket? You could paint them the same color as the wheels.

POST 3Original post

I took my rusty lugs, and painted them with silver caliper paint. They now match PERFECTLY the Titaniuim colored calipers on my C4. My wheels are chromed, but the silver look of the lugs and the calipers together look awesome. Ditto on the soft lug!!

POST 4Original post

oh I like this. I was going to replace my rusty lugs too. But this sounds much better.
