All I saw there were bolts, not studs, he is looking for the studs I think. I have a full set of studs somewhere here, let me see if I can find them. I know I had enough for a full rear conversion. They were new too. I bought them on the bay about a year or so ago and they are still in the bag. I had them out at D&G last time and before they sold, I changed my mind and decided to keep them for some reason. Since I cant remember why now, maybe I will let them go.

Factory Verbus sizes are 45mm then 52mm. If you want to race with stock Fuchs you'll need open lug nuts and 74mm studs (allows the thread to stick out 14mm past the nut. PCA rules.) If you plan on using spacers beyond that add accordingly.
Call Garrity at Motorsport and tell him I sent you. He has some 52mm's in stock for the best prices I've found. Believe it or not, the shorter ones (Verbus) tend to be more expensive because not too many people move in that direction. When they restud a 911 for a race application it's always with a longer stud:
801-487-6733
Most studs are fine if they are installed properly. The advantage Verbus has is full engagement on the threads (the run the length of the stud).

Be SURE and check the studs "theaded length" before you install them. Some studs do not have enough thread length to allow the lug nut to fully thighten.

I've had decent luck with these studs. I have had trouble with the wheel nuts from this place. They had a ridge that didn't seat to me wheels, so I had to grind it down.

I got a set a Napa for $30 US. If you go to your local auto store they will have several different lengths and types.
