We've had nothing but bad luck w/ the skunk2 studs. Their own lugnuts do not even thread onto them. We called and called and called and they would not replace them either.

Definately a to ARP.

Driveshaft shop has the ARP part number listed on their website. I am guessing you can get them from summit. As far as lugnuts go, I would recommend the skunk2s. They thread onto every wheelstud other than their own just fine. They are very very light.

ARPs is the way to go considering the choices. I used the Corvette extended lugstuds and "force" pressed them into my oem hubs. Works good.

I believe I have seen a set of Honda/Acura specific lugstuds from ARP recently, or at least they are soon to introduce them.

**below, possibly so. I guess I never saw that those were available, I wish I would have though. Using the Corvette/Camero studs enlarges the stud holes in the oen hub. So going back to stock Honda sized studs would not be possible with out getting new hubs.**

FYI I believe its a domestic Camaro replacement stud that will fit our cars as well. Screw paying that much for ARP's or skunks when these studs are like a $1 each.

*EDIT
Oops, didnt see the post above mine.

i had two sets of Skunks for my front wheels and 5/8 studs stripped from the hub and spun loosely with the lug still attached. and what integra_gsr98 is correct, their own lugs won't fit on their own studs
