Any one use these?

Something like,

Bit lighter and supposed to be stronger.

I wouldn't use them personally... is it for road or competition use?

i run studs on mine mainly as i allways have my wheels on and off and its easier lol

got my studs off here had a set of flat seated nuts but my cyclones need the stepped blots and i wasnt happy with how the ones of here sat so bought pugsport ones

there allright quality tbh it depends if you have taper or flat seat nuts and how big the holes are tbh

shame the studs only come in 85mm long but nothing a measure and hacksaw cant fix haha then tidy the ends up

this pic shows my current setup (see the larger shoulders on the bolts to cover the bigger holes)

if you have say vts rims or the early cyclones 205 speedlines ect that run a straight 12mm hole (not stepped one) then the pri flat nuts will be perfect
and they have funky alloy tapered ones too like thos you linked on tweeks

and on my 205 i have some dannygti had made up and sold a few sets of (he can no longer get any though)
