I don't think they're threaded. The holes for the spindle will accept up to a M16 bolt. You have a M14. So the bolt will go thru..but maybe you need to use some sort of special washer or sleeve so that there isn't excess play between the bolt shaft and strut mount hole.

Maybe they come with some sort of "filler" hardware.
