The ModalWorks line of Titanium Lug bolts perfectly match Mercedes Benz, Audi and Volkswagen OEM wheels. These R14 ball seat titanium bolts are 50% lighter than standard steel bolts, providing your vehicle with a lower rotating mass for improved acceleration. The weight savings in the rotating mass assembly are equally as important as lightweight wheels, and a set of lightweight lug bolts can be compared to a stationary weight savings of approximately 35-40lbs in most cars. The weight savings when using lighter lug nuts or bolts is equivalent to the weight savings achieved when using lighter wheels. If you are a performance-minded car enthusiast wanting to save weight wherever possible, or just want a set of great wheel bolts that won't rust, these are the ones for you.
