I have a set of 15' Alpina wheels that will be going on the E21.
I am trying to locate some new Lug bolts but do not know the
exact size to purchase.
Does anyone know the correct size? especially the Length, 23mm or 27mm ?
12 MM X 1.5
23 MM SHANK LENGTH or 27MM LENGTH ?
Thank you in advance,

Hello Alpina,
They are called Lug Bolts and yes the Hold the wheel in the Hub.
Here is the Link to Real OEM, please look at #3. I need to know the correct
length of the Lug Bolt.

ALPINA-
Located in USA
I was able to figure out the correct 12 x 1.5 but not sure on the correct Length, 23 or 27mm,
Someone just told me 28mm should be the correct size
and yes, need the chrome Lug bolts, just like what ALPINA used.
