Default where to find wheel studs?

i am looking for wheel studs for my 86 factory 930 Turbo euro slant nose.

i also have a 2011 BMW 1M and was able to purchase a set of these studs from Turner Motorsports. These studs simply screw into the hub from the front and allow for a nut to be put on after the wheel is mounted. I am having a hard time finding the same style of wheel stud for the porsche. i was told that i have no choice but to go through the back of the hub on the porsche. is this the case? can anyone point me in the right direction?

thanks

Porsche studs are pressed in from the back. You can get different lengths up to 100mm.

I think these are what you are looking for from the description. I purchased the lug nuts for my 89 but not studs. I have researched their studs for a GT3 and they seem like the best option from what I found. Easy installation and from the front. But the GT3 is an entirely different set up as it came with bolts originally. I presume they will have a product for your 86 as well but did not verify that.
