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.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello I've noticed some rust setting in on my wheel nuts (?) and I'd like to order a set of alloy replacements. Do I need new Wheel nuts, wheel bolts or both?? I know this seems a bit pathetic but I'm just making sure [ ] Has anybody done this and could they recommend some. It would also be good to know the best place to order them from. I have the Sports Design 18" (GT3) Wheels. Many Thanks Beno

They are bolts, however I would not recommend changing from the original Porsche fitment. Could be very dangerous... Have you talked to your OPC? Rusty nuts on many cars have been replaced free of charge.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
