What length lug bolt do I need for 2.0 Fuchs? Can I buy it at a flaps/costco/ect?
Thanks

In my experience, no.
At least not at a flaps near me.

The bolts you need are particular to this application, and you'll NEVER find them in a local store. I don't recall the length, but there have been reports that the some of the ones being sold on e-bay are not correct. Others may be. They need to be of the "ball seat" variety. I'm sure someone will chime in with the length.

And when you find a decent source, I need 4 more.
Brant had 12 for me but I am a little short.

Didn't you get a set with the wheels? Should have been there. I just let my last set go to Garold with the LE.

And original lug bolts are expensive. Something about a cadmium plating? If you ding them, there's a greenish hue beneath the silver.

Donald. I'm good. Scatty is bringing them to Hershey.
I wonder who the supplier is for AA?
Thanks for all the good info everyone.

I looked recently at AA and some of the bolts had a scored pattern in the conical area, like it was supposed to get more "bite" into the wheel. Not smooth like the originals...?maybe it will score the wheel a bit??

VW # 701 601 139 B
19mm head, 34 mm total threads, full ball cup
352BMW
17mm head,27mm total threads, half ball cup
The first should work fine. The second would work also.
I also remember an Audi lug bolt that would work too, but I don't have info on that one.

I think Mercedes also has bolts that work, I'm not sure about the finish though.

try Mid America Motorworks - page 154 in their 2012 catalog - they also have the plastic bolt covers you desperately want
