Anybody running studs instead of wheel bolts even if you dont track?

I personally don't like the look of studs. You can instead get wheel hangers, which thread into the bolt hole and act as studs to help locate and hold the wheel.

I got hangers with my BMS spacers, i was looking at studs after reading the horror stories of cross threading hubs with bolts. I want to ceramic coat my wheels and thought this would be the time to knock it out.

As long as you're starting the bolts by hand and using a torque wrench, you're fine.

I went with bolts. Was looking for some titanium studs so I could play around with some spacers I have but ended up just getting these.

My wheels are super heavy and it’s very difficult to position the wheels when u do s DIY, also i cross threaded my self with one of the bolt , so i switched myself to stud kits from motor sports recently , and felt better while putting the wheels on.

Could have easily solved it by just using some wheel hangers.

thats not the only reason , cross threaded bolts should not be removed frequently so untill i change the hub studs can keep it safe, cause the tyre shop guys dont care abt the cross theraded bolts. impact drivers will make more damages .
