Recently bought an E39, which has the same ant-theft wheel bolts as my e34. Both have the same number adapter, so either adapter fits the bolts on both. Just wondered how many variations there are. Mike.
How many different anti-theft wheel bolts?

I think the number of splines is written on the adaptor. There are at least 20 adaptors I think.
Thanks John. I didn't think the equispaced design of the splines allowed for very many. Should have thaught of it before I asked my question. Just checked on www.realoem. Looks like there are 30. Coded 11-40 inc. With so few adapters, it doesn't seem like a particularly good anti-theft device. Mike.
