    Hello,

    I’m new to the forum, and new to Ferrari ownership having collected a 2008 F430 Coupe in Abu Dhabi blue yesterday.

    My car has the 19” challenge wheels, is there a set of locking wheel nuts compatible with these, that are tried and trusted by members of this group? Security is always top of mind.

    Thanks in advance.

    Weight of the locking wheel bolt- is it the same as a standard bolt as some are not

    I suspect I have the titanium bolts as they are non-magnetic, I haven’t weighed them at this point.

    Would these be suitable in conjunction with titanium bolts (which I suspect I have)? I’ve seen people argue both ways that the uneven weight distribution may or may not be problematic, but really looking for insight from those with real world experience. Alternatively, does anybody have experience with a titanium set that is compatible?

    Kitchen scales are good enough
