I have a stud setup on my RUF and I use World Motorsports Ti lug nuts with it - strong, light, gorgeous, and no rust. World's are much more affordable than the others out there at about 1/3 the price.

Yes, I have the closed nut versions but believe they offer an open version as well. Just send them a note or reply in the thread they started here on their offerings.

Thanks. I had been following that thread https://rennlist.com/forums/997-foru...g-bolts-7.html

But they only refer to them as for air cooled Porsches. I'll follow up in the other thread.

Both air and water cooled Porsches use the same threads and seats (ball). The air cooled cars used nuts and the water cooled one bolts, which is why they refer to the nuts being for the air cooled cars, but that's what you want for the stud kit.
