None from me. Car won't come out until the snow and salt have all gone away. Normally around Easter. I'll update after getting some miles on them after that. They have them on ebay for $247 last I looked.

Over 5000 miles now no issue. BTW while looking at the service manual for front end work I did this year I found that PORSCHE RECOMMENDS anti-seize for lug bolts.See pg 253 of the service manual.(page 316 of the of the download.)

I'm curious what the lifespan is of Ti, and in particular in this scenario. I purchased the Acer lugs last year and they have been great so far. I'm considering getting the studs since I change wheels a LOT due to track usage.

I would NEVER EVER use titanium for lug bolts. Titanium is very prone to cracking and this is why you will not find Titanium used for lug bolts or lug nuts anywhere in motorsports applications. For cars and coffee, possibly. For anything else, I would be very very cautious.
