Another advantage I forgot to mention earlier is the knurled top. They're pretty easy to get started on the studs. |

Titanium may be a better option - light, strong and inert.

I looked at these but do they have an end cap to close off the opening in the end?

For me, that was a good thing because I had installed long wheel studs on the rear of my car. I can post a pic of how they look on stock and long studs if you're interested. |
