I have the original wheel bolts on my 968 (think they are magnesium) and they are looking tired and rounded. Can someone suggest a relaible supplier of new bolts and rough prices please? I need 4 sets. TIA. |

Assuming the 968 uses wheel nuts the same as a 944 then the nuts are aluminium & the studs are steel. This is why it is critical to use a torque wrench on them. Wheel nuts vary in price but worth trying all the normal soures including OPC. When I looked they weer around £3 each. |
