I have two sets of lug bolts and am wondering which, if any, are what would have originally come on my 73 with steelies. The black ones below have a divot in the top and have 25mm of threads.
  The silver ones have a rounded top and have 40mm of threads   |

Post #1 on this thread has a nice picture of presumably original steel lugs with the divets you show on the head.
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=74857 I know the lugs are shorter for the steel wheels. One source (Tech Tips) indicates the steel lugs were 1.5 inches (and the alloy lugs 2.5 inches), but I think that these are not correct -- alloy is about 1.5 inches. |
