    Stud Kid? Size and Brand? I hear young Russian males are strong, hard workers and easy to please.

      Haha. Yeah, I have just had a long day at work and I really hate the keyboards they have here... I saw VAC had a kit but was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions.

        Yeah I'm just messin with you. I know they made these wheels to work with the OEM lug bolts without spacing, why do you want to use studs?

          Because they are bad ass and because the OEM lug bolts I have are in pretty bad condition. (more of the 2nd answer)

            Well I honestly haven't really heard good things about any of the available kits. Just search some of the names and it seems like there's an issue or two with all of em. Turner, Vorshlag, I dunno who else.

            If I were you, I'd save the $$ buying studs and such, and not worry about them not working down the road. Try to track down a good set of OEM ones from a parts car or something.

              I have the new Vorschlag 90mm studs and love them. Turner has the same for about 90¢ more. Get 17mm nuts. I don't see any argument against quality studs (not talking about the Blunt variety here).
              Brake harder. Go faster. No shit.

                      Ok, Eddy take your pic and I can link you direct or whatever, if they won't work, I can take more. I just snapped these quick in the driveway.

                      1) Front wheel cocked slightly


                      2) Front wheels straight


                      3) Front on (to show off my meat)


                      4) Left rear. I'm not sure if this shows what people asked for, if not, I can take more.

                        Adjusted the ISO and took 2 more, hopefully less grainy.

                        1) Cocked


                        2) Not cocked

                              I made another thread asking about some settings. I'm not sure if I'm content with ride height yet or what I want my settings to be. Eddy, after talking to a few local shops today, I did decide that setting it once was optimal and leaving it like you said. Thanks for lettin me call last night.



                              Eddy, I'll PM you back in a few, I'm kinda swamped with some stuff now.

                                Oh, and thanks a bunch. I'm happy with em, just need to get an alignment next week hopefully. Then all I need to do is machine my rotors, completely swap all the brake fluid (which im not sure how to do), and install pads and SS lines.
