I was getting ready to get some lug bolts to replace the wheel locks (before I lose the key), but noticed the studs.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Anybody done a wheel stud conversion? If so what's your opinion? I was getting ready to get some lug bolts to replace the wheel locks (before I lose the key), but noticed the studs.
Seems easier to mount the wheels with the studs in place.
Any recomended brands? I was looking at the rennline set at pelican but there are several alternatives.
I have studs from ECS Tuning.
I‘ve installed them on VW, BMW, and Porsche.
They‘re awesome!
I run 56mm studs in front and 70mm in the rear.

Perhaps I�ve been doing it so long I�ve just gotten used to it, but the standard setup is fine for me. The trick is to use two of the alignment pins so the wheel isn�t flopping around as you pull it off/on. These stainless ones are much better than the aluminum one in the tool kit�easy to hand thread, nice and stiff, and the tapered, rounded ends catch the lug holes in the wheel easily. Arguably, they prevent banging up the caliper better than studs since the wheel is already centered much further out when sliding it into place.
My new car has CLs, so even dealing with these is a dream of simplicity compared to what I have to contend with now!
Those hangers work well for a once a year tire off deal. The studs are much better for a more track oriented car. Tire changes r much quucker if u want to put the track tires in the pit. Also they r stonger and the wear is on the stud threads and not the wheel bearing threads
