Andrew,
I have a phobia about wheel studs, as I saw a really bad accident that
resulted from losing a front wheel when all four studs broke at once. I
would get some different hubs machined up to suit the wheels if you really
wanted to use them. While you are it you could get the hubs made to suit
some bigger discs and calipers
Cheers

Errol,
What if I were to fix the spacers to the original studs and fit 4 new studs
between them.Although this would be expensive unless I can access the
machinery.
