Default Desperate, need spacer and wheel studs for CTS-V brake conversion

I have been waiting 2 months now for an the Eibach spacer and stud kit. Just told it will be another 1 month, no guarantee. I don't want to wait and get told again they aren't coming. Does anyone know someone/somewhere I can get a pair of spacers and a set of the longer studs. I have everything else ready and done (14" CTS-V brake upgrade) on our 2002 LE vert (#165). Summer is coming and I have exhausted my resources. Help!

for spacers i sent you a PM as they are not a sponsor, and for wheel studs, get the 2.5" long ARP studs from here:

i have these studs front and rear, work great. make sure you use a press to install them.

I would stay away from Thunderracing. I've heard that place has gone downhill big time. Do a search and you will see.

I actually bought a set of lug nuts from them about two years ago. Took a long time to get them.. I usually don't mind waiting though.
