Just one fortunately, and I'm glad it happened at an autocross (on my 4th and last run of 5 runs allowed....still won my class by over a second :wink.
It looks like it was probably cracked previously given how the lower half looks like it's surface-rusted a bit vs. the grey-coloration on the upper half.
Given the unknown age and condition of the others, I am probably just going to take the opportunity to replace all 20 at this point.
What's the common wisdom on replacement studs. OEM, ARP, something else?
Car is stock motor '92 with KW V3, and right now running Dunlop Z1s. I don't see myself running R-Comps on it anytime soon, no wheel spacers.
Also recommendations on lug nuts (conical seat for Advan, etc.)? I don't want aluminum as I do have occasion to take the wheels off and on and don't want to fool with the delicacy/expense of an aluminum lug.
