Yep! But it is not a common thread pitch for industrial suppliers.

Standard pitch for 12mm is 1.75 fine is 1.25. The OEM is grade 10.9 with

Gee, all those Hondas and Toyotas use 12 X 1.5 thread pitch not to mention
Mercedes, BMW, Opel, etc.

At least for lugnuts and bolts, they are quite plentiful and common.
Didn't VW use those on the A1 & A2

cars as well?
