Idanity -- What studs did you buy, and would you recommend them to others?

just make sure you use loctite, otherwise your asking me to answer an impossible question.

what type wheels you got ?
do you have spacers?

Apologies. It didn't seem inappropriate to ask in this forum. I would have gone the PM way if it had been the 'parts for sale' forum instead..

FWIW, I just run the 14" bottlecaps. I've not seen anything else that I liked enough to pay retail prices for.

you all good.

they're all gonna be about the same price. just gotta get what you want...if you rotate your tires often, then its worth it...otherwise, the oem will hold up for decades.

Well, the OEM may hold up forever, but I changed one flat tire on the side of the road in the dark and that was sufficient for me to decide they should have had studs to begin with.

Plenty of not-great locking lugs out there, these are some good ones.
If you're looking for some, grab these.
