I have Riverias on my 914 now but will replace them with a set of Mahles as soon as I repaint them and get a set of BF Goodrich g-Forces mounted up.
I was checking the current lug bolts today and saw that they only have about 3/8's of an inch of thread to bolt into the hub. Is that enough, especially since I have 2 DE's over the next 6 weeks? If not any recommendations on a source for the proper length?
Thanks again!

Hal, measure the threads on one of the ones you have and I will measure one of the "long" ones that i have. This will give you a better idea of what the thread engagement will be.
It will tomorrow afternoon before I can get to, but I will do so and post the measurement.
Thanks!
Here is a pic of a "long" alloy lug bolt. You can see that it is just under 40mm long.

When looking for a possible source, I found this:

Looks like you have the 38mm bolts. I'll let you know how mine compare.
Thanks again.
Jonathan, looks like I have "shorts." So if you have a set of "longs" you are willing to sell, let me know what $$$ you are asking.
Thanks for the help.
Hal
