Stud and lug nut conversion

WDBi · 02-15-2013, 05:11 AM

Im looking into getting a stud conversion for my car. I want a kit that is forwards compatible aka a kit that will fit any size spacer i may run in the future which i believe means i need a 90mm stud and i want bullet nose. Does anyone have any suggestions for a bullet nose 90mm stud conversion kit?

also i obviously am going to need lugs what are some good lugs that arent priced all too crazily the budget here is right around 300 for the full conversion.

I got the studs from macht schnell. They have good reviews and come in the 90mm bullet nose. In terms of lugs I went with project kics. Which have a rotating seat so that when you tighten them up they don't scratch your wheels in the holes. Do your search on lugs. There are a lot of cheap aluminum ones out there (I run red muteki ones for winter). Aluminum ones damage easily especially if used with impact guns.

I'm going with the Macht Schnell 90mm studs and Muteki titanium lugs this week with my HRE's. It'll be about $220, which within your budget FWIW.
