Just took possession of an 06 S. It's in remarkable cosmetic shape (high milage, but spent its life in Arizona and seems to have been well cared for - over 95 records, mostly service, in Carfax).

It has the 19" wheels, which I love.

BUT... the lug nuts and studs are horribly rusted.

Anyone know of a great source for new nuts? And how hard is it to get the studs replaced?

 

Stock the car comes with bolts which you paint or replace with stock or titanium. If it has studs, they are likely the thread in variety so you just double nut to remove and replace with any of the available stud conversions

 

You got this, 06flat6:

They all do that. Get some replacement from your Porsche dealer or any other places.

I always bought chrome ones, on ebay

 

FIFY.

 

McGuard or other hi quality chrome bolts are on ebay and still on all my cars for years and years

 

I replaced mine with Tikore titanium lug nuts years ago and have never regretted it.

 

Titanium is the answer...
