Quick help; Lug bolt length

[AlpineMsix]

I own a 2011 x5m.

Just wanted to confirm. How long are the lugs on my vehicle? 25mm?

E53:

M14 x 1.5 bolt thread

Don't think they made an X5M in 2001...;>)

Aha...2011.
Not poz, as E70s take a M14 x 1.25 bolt thread, not the M14 x 1.50 that E53s use.

The M14 is a bolt designation, different from M12s, et al, but it is not the effective threaded length. On the E53 they are ~ 33mm long.
No freakin clue on the E70, as I don't recall reading it, and don't have an E70.

Maybe a wheel expert can help.

Just call your dealer and have the parts dept look it up in the computer.
