Design 90 Wheels- OEM lock question
My bone stock 1991 964 has a set of OEM wheel locks installed on it's Design 90 wheels.
The front locking nuts stick out much farther than the ones on the rear wheels. Is this correct??
I have measured the locking sleeves/nuts and ALL FOUR are the same length, as well as the wheel studs.

Yup, normal and typical for the (original) 964.
I use them in summer as a nod to originality, and the simpler later version in winter, to avoid the possiblility of them corroding shut.

Think I'll do the same. I really don't like the way the front locks stick out so much.
I just ordered four standard wheel nuts from a seller on eBay.
