if you have any specs, that might help the search. i know i don't have any like that though. i was surprised to find that AutoZone had a decent selection of lug bolts behind the counter and NAPA can get ahold of most anything. you might try those. also, as those look to be for American Racing rims, you might try hot rod shops or Summit Racing and the like.

tech info

They are a 14mm lug bolt for an Aluminum mag wheel manufactured by American Racing in the late '60's called a "Lemans" it is 15"x6" and is a four spoke that ways about 14lbs. The lug bolt(or "stud" if you will) is 14mm at the thread with a smooth shaft or "shank" that is about 16mm and 3/8" or 1/2" long depending on if you count the washer which is is non-removable, but not welded. the length is about 1.75.
I hope this helps. NO ONE HAS THEM>
There is one company who claims to have "new" ones, but they want $15.00 a bolt...too much for me $240.00 for 16 bolts?! and that'ts before tax and shipping!

American Racing does not have them either.
They are just a hair smaller than the EPMI mag shank lug nuts which seem to be the new standard size these days.
Alternatively I have considered using thread in studs (lock-tite in place) and simply having the holes on the mags bored out to this "standard" size.
MUCH cheaper, but not my first choice.
