44mm seems kinda short
I have a set of these in 90mm http://www.europeanautosource.com/pr...conversion-kit
works great. I run spacers so i needed the longer ones. But you can roll by with the 75mm without spacers

I would not recommend getting something like a stud conversion on eBay.

You will have to get the studs to fit your rims you want. Maybe I am old school but I like the studs with nuts better than bolts.

You can try turnermotorsports they have some and yes you can get good stuff from ebay just choose your sellers and ask questions about the product you're buying.ps dont forget to get some loc tite.

Got my 75mm studs from EAS - I ordered the studs individually, along with a set of fancy nuts for my aftermarket wheels (and 10mm spacers for the front). I'm very happy with the results.
