I've been considering replacing the lug bolts
for my wheels, have a set of Fuchs and Pedrinis, with screw in studs and lug nuts. Has anyone here gone this route? I'm looking for suggestions, recommendations, opinions, reservations. What size studs do I need, where can I find them? Thanks |

Gary,
typically the screw in studs are made from "crap" and dont hold very well. Most in the industry would not recommend this setup. They tend to come loose even though the lug nut is tight. There is a way to go to studs... but it is a lot of work. We use Verbus studs (factory Porsche pieces) and 911 steel lug nuts. B |
