Default I think it's kind of lame that HRE doesn't include them.

Every set of BBS that I have bought through Tire Rack has included replacement bolts. It's probably due to a difference in cone vs. ball seat for the BBSs, but for what HRE is charging they can afford to toss in a set of wheel bolts and remove all ambiguity about the situation. Sheesh.

Torque spec should be the same as stock since the bolt diameter is the same

Default They could only get a little over two threads to engage.

It looks like you have more showing until you fit it on the drum, They showed me it would only catch a little over two threads. They had ECS in stock and these are the ones they sold me. The Ball type looked like it seated very well.<ul><li><a href="http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/pagebuild_v2.cgi/?html=learnmore.html&amp;productID=8628">http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/pagebuild_v2.cgi/?html=learnmore.html&amp;productID=8628</a</li></ul>

Default hmm...maybe they changed with the 996.

I have a set of Porsche wheel locks, and they are lug nuts, not bolts. I used them on my TT, which had adapters to run Porsche 911 wheels.
