I use to have a stud kit on my car and i have to say these are well worth the money!

:up:

[Rob]

what size are the lug nuts (ie 17mm, or whatever)

also, is chrome the only option?

[M-technik-3]

Are those lugs compatable with what type wheel?

[blackforest]

the lug nuts use a key that comes with the set (14mm internal allen) so they also act as keyed lugnuts in a sense.

The lugs come in chrome and black. Black lugs are $5 more...

quality/satsifaction claim/statement? anyone with experience with these? just curious.....

[blackforest]

All OEM wheels are ball seat. 99.9% of aftermarket wheels are cone seat. These kits are cone seat. Thouhg we can get ball seat for an additional $10 for the set.

Er.. So can I use these with switching back and forth between OEM wheels and aftermarket when I switch wheels for autocross or put my winter tires on?

Same question. Can they be used with say, my borbets, then used when putting on my baskets with cheap rubber for auto-x?

Studs rock. I don't even want to remember what it was like with lug bolts.

EDIT: guys, they can be used with all wheels. They're the same as having lug bolts, except you screw on a nut instead of threading the whole bolt. The studs stay in all the time.

Simply put, if you take your wheels off more than the average person, or switch between track, winter, and summer wheels, or are constantly swapping pads at the track, YOU SHOULD HAVE STUDS. If you dont, you're just :loco:

[Rob]

if your aftermarket wheels are compatible with stock bolts (which are cone shaped), then these will work. fairly easy to understand.

Yes and no.

As stated OEM(stock) wheels use a ball seat in the wheel while aftermarket(borbet) use a cone seat. It is extremely dangerous to use the wrong type lug on a wheel, ie cone on a ball.

The studs are the same for either, you would just need both sets of lugnuts to switch beteen the two. That is a set of the cone seat lugnuts and a set of the ball seat. If you are using the same lugbolts now on both sets of wheels you are taking a big risk.

well, blackforest and Rob.....

fight it out and decided whether I'll need another set of nuts to use these studs with my basketweaves.

and in the case I do need ball nuts, how much are we talking $$
