Anybody have an extra set of Porsche lug nuts that they can spare? I'm hauling home a 911 parts car that has no wheels. I have a set of wheels, but no extra lug nuts. Condition is not important.

Take three lugnuts off each wheel of a Porsche you already own. If you are flatbedding, 3 lugnuts per wheel is more than enough to get it on the trailer. If you are dolleying,put 2 lugnuts on the dolley wheels and 4 lugnuts on the wheels that touch the ground.
Once you get home, reinstall the lugnuts on your Porsche.

Put the other Porche on blocks and rob the nuts off it just for the tow. Unless you plan on using it to tow the parts car home with it.

any wheel shop or parts house will sell you steel lugs for a few bucks that will work fine on the Porsche. Some race groups require you to remove the alloy lugs on older Porsches, as well.

Would your average "Tire Zone" have ball seat lug nuts in stock?
