Will spacers and lug bolts from 997 fit a 991?
Wondering if anyone has made the swap from their 997 to 991. Hoping to take mine with me when I upgrade soon from my 997. Are the lug bolts long enough and fit properly? I have 7mm front and 15mm rear.

I read somewhere that the wheel bolts for a 991 are made from a different metal which is in part why the wheel bolts are torqued to a higher spec on a 991.

Could be. I don't know. I was told the torque change from 96 ft.lbs. to the higher 118-119 because of the now larger 20" wheels vs the 19" wheels on the 997.
