As long as your wheels are hub centric they're great! I will be running some.

I know 1000 people will say "there's nothing wrong with them they work awesome!", but personally, it is a skip for me. Plenty of 5x112 wheels available.

I don't like the idea, but it is great for convenience...

If you were to swap from lugs to studs, you can get 12mmx1.5 studs and cone seat nuts. Instead of the 14x1.5 studs you still get the same effect of wobble bolts, while retaining the 5x112 part of your car if need be.

I run 12x1.5mm studs with wobble nuts and they are awesome ;) The main reason is so I can run Enkei RPF1's. mine are 17x9.5, damn strong, insanely light, under $250 and readily available.

I have a ton of track days on the wobbles and never had an issue. In fact they stay torqued better than standard conical wheel nuts.

Thanks for the answer, I'll have to check those out.

I've wanted to convert to studs for a while but while it's easy to drop a grand on coilovers, that 60$ conversion is a killer! ;) Will also consider this! Thanks
