Default Who here would like to have wheel stud kits before swapping to winter wheels? or Track wheels?

<center><img src="http://www.nerallysport.com/catalog/images/studs.jpg"></center><p>A lot of local guys (Northern Vermont) are already starting to get their gear together for winter. Many have bought stud kits, so I thought I'd pass it along. Usually the kit costs $84.95 with conical nuts, but we can make that a bit less depending on how many people are interested. Let me know here who might be interested. ;-)
FYI, kits with 20 studs, 20 ball seat nuts, and loctite cost $109.95. Finally, kits with 20 studs, 20 ball seat nuts, 20 conical nuts and loctite costs $129.95. The reason the ball seat nut kit costs more is because these are OE Porsche racing nuts.<ul><li><a href="http://www.nerallysport.com/catalog/product_info.php?pName=wheel-stud-conversion-kit&amp;cName=a4-b5-chassis-suspension&amp;osCsid=52cb8eeccaecc5366473bb40bf46 4de6">Online Catalog - Clicky!</a></li></ul>

Default exactly! 2" of thread will allow you up to a 20mm spacer on most wheels.

I run these with 18mm spacers on my Mille Miglia Cup 1 replica wheels and there are still 3 threads outside of the nut. On our rally cars, we usually run shorter studs and the nuts still have 3-4 threads to go. It's all about weight reduction on those cars, though.
We use aluminum fasteners wherever possible.

Would it be possible to get shorter ones? I'm not sure I'd like the stud sticking out on the front.

the ball seat nuts are 26mm radius. They are OE Porsche racing steel nuts.
