Hello!
I purchased a stud conversion kit from ECS for my 2016 Golf R. This one to be exact:
https://www.ecstuning.com/b-ecs-parts/ball-seat-stud-conversion-kit/001467ecs01kt/
What I received has me a bit confused. The studs that I received seem to be too thin. The ball seat lugs in the kit will not even thread onto the studs. And the studs will not thread onto the rotors. They are a bit smaller in diameter compared with the stock wheel bolts.
Reached out to ECS and will be returning the kit. The strange thing is these studs are labeled as M14x1.5 56mm. Are these the correct dimensions for the MK7 Golf R? The support person was not able to give a definitive answer on what happened there.
I'm curious what experience others have had with studs for our applications? And what brands are recommended?
Much appreciated.
