Yup, I did this for my car since I track a lot as well. Be sure to put some strong locktite on the studs (only the short end that goes into the hub! lol) and torque them down real good. Then torque on the wheels with your lug nuts. This will allow the studs and the locktite to bond better. No trackwork for at least a week after install. And keep checking torque on the lug nuts.
If you happen to take off any lugs, check each corresponding stud to make sure it's still very tight against the hub.

I personally went with Gorilla brand studs, and Spoon (JDM brand as well) lug nuts to match my wheels a bit.
Would've used my spare set of Volk extended duralug nuts, but I might be including them in the sale of my non-M fitment LE37's. Plus, the Volk lugs don't match my wheels as well as the Spoon lugs.
