How long are the wheel bolts?

Whats the length of the standard wheel bolt for the E90?
Would be great if someone knew so I didnt have to take one of just to find out.
I know its M12x1,5 but the length is nowhere (for me) to be find.

I'm mounting 5mm spacers so I need to get the correct length+5mm.

OEM lug bolts are 25mm long I believe.

so if you mount a 5mm spacer that would negate a 30mm lug bolt.

Looks like you were right

Finally got an answer from BMW, the threads are 25mm long and the bolt has a total length of 50mm.

So I need to replace my front OEM black bolts with silver ones to match the extended ones in the rear. Would a 26mm length work?

For example, these (sorry for the advertising): http://www.europeanautosource.com/pr...roducts_id=417

Yep, 26mm thread length will work.
