Anyone have experience with changing the wheels studs? any suggestions on where to buy? I'm looking for longer studs for a track only car. Thanks in advance.

About 1/2 the price that most sell them for (www.paragon-products.com). The one thing that has me worried about the ones in your link is the note at the bottom of the table.
Note: Must Drill To 1/2” & Ream Hubs To 9/16” With (.562”) Reamer
Fronts are fairly easy to change, a press helps a great deal. The rears are a pain, you with have to pull the rear hub (not easy) or remove the e-brake and use the space at the bottom to pound them out. You can then pull the new studs through with an impact wrench.

0.562" = 14.27mm and the stud is 14mm in diameter. 0.27mm doesn't sound like much to me. That's only .010" (right?). Anyway I like the bullet nose end. Can't seem to find them elsewhere.
