Re: Anyone replace their lug bolts with studs and nuts?

["Dave Ewing" <rabbit16v@prodigy.net>]

WHY!!  Why would you want to use studs?  The only reason I could think is if
you are running slicks and you need the extra strength but even then I don't
know if they are necessarily stronger than the factory bolts let alone
aftermarket.  If you need clearance to use aftermarket wheels get a set of
aftermarket lug bolts, not studs.  Believe me, I have dealt with them on a
number a vehicles, none of the owners liked them, mechanics don't like them
and they are unnecessary.  HTH!!
