I could think of better things to do with my money, like... I dunno, throwing it off a bridge? Making a campfire? I think a campfire would be quite a bit more useful.
Had to laugh at this, too:
"these titanium lug bolts will not corrode or rust and offer a significant weight savings on your Porsche while giving a very sporty and aggressive look"
Hyping it up, overstating what they do, using FOMO tactics with that "sale price" by showing the "retail price" ... yeah, I'd pass here.
I have the World Motorsport titanium bolts, purchased from Pelican Parts. My suspicion is they are rebranded Acers. I am happy with them. I did them because I have costly wheels and the rusty steel bolts were ruining the look. No regrets.
Not that it makes much of a difference but they really are lighter than the OE bolts. I would imagine at least 1lb of savings, maybe more.

I did a stud conversion and got Augment titanium lug nuts.
A little bit of weight savings, easier wheel changes and love the look. They are black and feel like a piece of plastic in your hand, they're that light.
I run them mostly for looks over the oem black bolts that were starting to rust on the edges and because I wanted longer bolts to run spacers. They save about 1lb total when you add up all 4 corners so for me it was a win win.
I run them on my Carrera T as well. I was trying to stick to the weight savings ethos and they definitely look better. Also, I got them on one of their Black Friday or other holiday sales. So, they weren't that expensive.
very tempted by silver or yellow ones by bonoss but their video walk through didn’t exactly install confidence. Not to mention they’re double the price of the Acer.
I have a set of 20 Acer titanium black lug bolts I never used. I bought them for my 997 with 5mm spacers on all fours, but traded the 997 for a new 991.2. I put a Rennlist classified for these at about half price, but no takers. If any one wants them search the classified for Lug nuts and see my post. Main reason for me to get them was the OEM lugs were showing corrosion on black Sport design BBS wheels. ACER would not take them back due to Covid(?!?!). Still in plastic packaging. PM me if interested

I needed longer lugs bolts when I put 7mm/15mm spacers on my 996. I ordered acer, and they’re fine. The stock lug bolts get so corroded and gross, I wanted something that wasn’t going to rust. Any weight savings would be a bonus, but I don’t expect it to do anything except look better than stock.
