The one objection I have to these units is you have to ream (make the bigger)
the holes in your hub to fit them per the instructions on the webpage you
noted above. There are aftermarket and factory studs available which do not
require you to alter your hubs. Not to mention cheaper than these guys. You
can also get Porsche studs which work w/o modifications but much pricier.

At any rate, if anyone desperately needs longer rear studs, I can offer some
assistance as long as the number of requesters do not get overwhelming as
they did in the past.
