Can anyone tell me where I can buy this exact part
As the title says. It is from a Porsche wheel.
Cheers

Any wheel shop should be able to find you these...
M12 = Metric 12mm bolt
1.5 = pitch of the thread
The part that mates the wheel need to be matching on nut and wheel eg 45 degrees
Good luck

Thanks for that. I can find nuts that will fit but none with little round dome top on it like this one has.

Cheers guys.

Definitely NOT for a Porsche rim, but possibly a Porsche repro/copy rim.
Porsche rims (Fuchs, Phones, Cookies, Twists etc.) all have the ball mating surface like cesiumfrog says, plus they're all M14. That one looks to be
a 60 degree Acorn nut, and is obviously marked as M12x1.5.
Looks more like a Holden nut to me... they were M12x1.5 60 deg up until the VE Commodore (when they switched to M14 60 deg)
The "little round dome top" is just a cosmetic thing, potentially different to each manufacturer....

It is a later model but definitely a Porsche nut. They came with my twists from a Carrera. I am looking for the same ones as I lost 8 of the 20 from
the bag they were stored in.
