TiKORE Titanium Lugs - Porsche
Hey everyone, we are new site sponsors and wanted to introduce ourselves. TiKORE Industries (pronounced Tie-Core) was established in 2010 to serve the needs of the aftermarket automotive industry. TiKORE designs, engineers, and manufactures titanium and other alloy products at its headquarters located in Fort Lauderdale, FL (USA).
We offer titanium lug bolts (security and non-security) and titanium lug nuts for all brands of vehicles (custom sets as well for those of you running spacers).
Please note we roll all of our threads, manufacture the bolts in house and all of our titanium bolts are crafted from grade 5 certified titanium bar stock.
In regards to our Porsche bolts the weight savings are slightly different as Porsche uses an aluminum ball seat, thus lighter weight in that area, but risk of wearing down the seat and oxidization of the aluminum. TiKORE bolts offer weight savings and an escape from the weathering that we all see from Porsche lug bolts. One of the ultimate factors is that titanium has an extremely high resistance for corrosion.
Product: Titanium 2-Piece Porsche
Weight per bolt = .150 lbs
Set Weight = 3 lbs
Thread: M14x1.5
Seat: Ball
Head: 19mm hex
Thread Length: 27mm
*TiKORE Engineering note, we made sure the security bolt and the regular bolt weigh the same.

Yield Strength: 128,000psi
Ultimate Tensile Strength: 138,000psi
Shear Strength: 79,800psi
