Guys and girls, How many of you have been very frustrated by those stupid wheel bolts on the Audi? I hate 'em. My RX7s all had 'em too. I changed them to studs. They were only M12x1.5, and readily available. Well, I started calling around to get studs for my '86 5KCSTQ, and found out that noone has M14x1.5 - 40mm long studs! I finally found a company that specializes in small run custom fasteners, so I may have some made up. If I do this, it will prolly get cheaper to do a bigger batch of them. Is anyone out there interested in switching over to studs? If so, let me know, so I can estimate the numbers that I can plan for. If there are a few of you, then I'll look into having them make up a hundred or so. I estimate the cost at about $50.00/car assuming 20 studs per car. Later, Graydon D.
