Porsche i'd imagine as you'd only have 4 vauxhall bolts and you need 5 for the porsche's.

You need round head wheel bolts mate. Not taper. It all comes down to the seat in the rim mate.

It'll be porsche stuff since the holes will be drilled and tapped to the porsche spec I'd have thought. Plus as said about the seating of the nut/ bolt

Just buy tapered bolts that are the correct size for the thread they are going into. Job done.

Infact i would look into the adapters as they should come with the correct bolts. 9 per wheel.

Basically you can pretend it's a real porsche hub, otherwise it's not doing its job properly.

But as he has said numerous times the 928/944 uses studs not bolts, prety sure the thread would be standard metric size so just need correct head bolts.

Yer threads are standard size but you need short wheel bolts as you only have thread that is the length of the adapter.

So if you buy 25mm 5x130 adapters. You will only have 25mm of thread

i used my standard seat wheel bolts cut down with a angle grinder to fit my 928's to the ibiza
