Default 90mm? OH no, that's about 3 3/4 inches, they measure thread length usually, not total bolt length.

my suggestion for you if you are trying to find the proper bolt length for an Oettinger RE is to find a company that sells them and ask them what they include with the wheels for A4's/.

Default You looking for appropriate wheel locks for RE's?Then you want these

RAD GmbH locks available from www.prestigewheel.com

M14x1.5, 32mm, R12 seat

If you want another brand than RAD (they are the best however) then you must get the same specs, altho you can go up to a 34mm length maximum, but no shorter than 32mm.

The oem wheel studs are shorter.. so I'd guess ~28mm
