ARP Extended Hub studs

[eXceed]

Been looking at getting some of these as I'm getting fed up of every time a garage removes and puts on my alloys they end up coming back to me saying the threads gone on the hub stud. Coupled with the fact that the stud barely clears into the alloy I'm not happy with how it is at the moment. So wondering if anyone knows which ARP stud kit to get, just going to replace the whole set and these look absolutely bullet proof. Even when the mechanics decide to use a hammer to put my lug nuts on (this didn't happen but I can imagine that's how they keep threading my studs!).
So far I've found these two sources:

Quoting two different part no.s, my problem is I don't want to get DC2 studs or is the RSX stud size the same?
Thanks for any help.

unfortunatly they are an arse to fit, Tom will normally have Spoon ones in stock.

the reason they thread them is that most garages put studs back on using an air gun, good practice is to start doing them by hand, for cars with quite fine thread, starting them with the gun is a surefire way to strip them, it didn't matter on something like my landrover with its huge studs, but with most light cars the studs are thin and quite fine

Yeah I know, really ****es me off but nothing I can except find a garage that I can trust. Got to try this one who had a couple of race car projects (for himself) on the go, reckon he'd look after my pride and joy . Currently running on 4 studs on that one alloy which I really don't feel comfortable with... I keep checking it to make sure they're not coming loose!!
