Anyone any long term experience with them? Are they likely to sheer or explode or anything on a daily driven road car?

Yeah I wouldn't really trust the slip on ones anyway unless I had extended studs or something, any idea about the hubcentric ones though?Quote:

They're nearly 70 squids posted! not that cheap?
I'm nearly sure if you try east coast alloys they do basically the same thing for less.
Also says on those that the studs are 12x1.5 so unless you have open ended nissan nuts you'd have to get a set. The nuts they give you can only be used to hold your wheel on.
The bolts are only grade 8.8. EU law states a minimum of 10.9 for wheel studs bolts. So if you cause an accident a PSV officer could hold you liable for all damages.
