who makes racing studs that would withstands stress and cross threading?
More importantly, what size (length) should one look for? I know plenty of bmw tuners selling them and noticed rennline has one too. I seen too many poorly made one that want to pick one up that is par to rest of the car.
TIA

I've had good results with H&R for wheel spacers and wheel bolts. (There are cheaper sources, but I was unsure of quality. Don't want your wheels falling off.) What you need is wheel dependent, so look at what you have and measure OR go to a good mechanic. I use Tire Rack for common fitments and a local wheel/tire guy for odd ball stuff. No substitute for doing your homework.

never had issue.
63mm length willwork. the longer one bottoms out before you lock up the nuts.
there are other makers, but i use these.
BBS has another type with bull nose tips, very nice. but those only work with BBS wheels.

I removed them, because I wanted to run the BBS Mg Racing wheels, and the wheel need 90mm studs, so I'm back to lug bolts.

yes, oem bolts replaced with studs
they are stronger and also easier to change tires.
if you search CDOC or just call them, ask for steel nuts for track use. they will send the right stuff.

i had TC Kline studs on the white e36m3 you saw years ago.
although i was told not to, but when i am in a hurry, i impact gun the CDOC studs/nuts too. 50% of the time i impact gun them, 50% of the time i break the nut loose before putting the impact gun on.
