Ok, now I understand why you don't give advice anymore. That's a lot of variables : )

Will get a set of 81mm Pro studs but...

- When do you expect to have rolled-thread Pro Studs available?
- Ball nuts for both OEM and OZ?

No firm ETA on new features. Descriptions on the website are updated as needed. We actually update often and minor changes are implemented without any fanfare. Continuous product improvement.

Re: the OZ nuts. I just looked up on Tire Rack and see: Reuse OE hardware. Wheel will accept OE Porsche cap.

However you should check yours. Never just take anyone's word for it on the internet As for the OE wheels... Yes. R14 spherical seat nuts MUST be used. Unique to Porsche. Don't assume all "ball seat" nuts sold for Porsche are the same. Most of those "ebay" nuts are wrong.

PS - If you want to chat about wheel studs and different wheel types give Mackenzie @ CDOC a call. He has more experience with the various wheels out there than I do.

Might get impatient and do it too, but am checking back regularly for the "rolled-thread" upgrade

Cool! they are ~35lbs lighter than the Victor Equipment track wheels I had been using.. Should see some improvements on track.
I put rain slicks on the Victors now, thinking heavier is better

Pro Studs and nuts ordered. Too impatient to wait for the new stuff.

$58 shipping cost
Well at least I saved $1,00 due to the exchange rate
