Post by: egspot on March 09, 2010, 02:23:19 PM

I have these wheels:

I do have the lugs for them (wil fit right in) and they have a different thread than any other set that i have.

where should i look?

Need to know what the thread and pitch is on the lugs you've got.

Stock beetle is 14mm x 1.5

If the wheels nuts you have are imperial, not metric, I have a set of adapter studs for you that are likely the ones you need.

i  have 14mm to 12mm and 12mm to 12mm with several lugs that do not fit into the wheels.
i also have the right lugs that fit into the wheels but the thread if different than my 12mm from my old 64.

You most likely need 1/2 to 14mm studs. The 14 thread to the drum and the 1/2 to the lug bolt.

In which case I have 20 studs which will work.
