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 Michael '73 914 2056 RAT '96 993 |

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. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

It will tomorrow afternoon before I can get to, but I will do so and post the measurement.
Thanks! QUOTE(hwgunner @ Sep 15 2007, 08:31 PM)  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. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
