M14x1.5 'Bullet Nose' race stud — Track-Studs.com

This is the wheel I'm talking about, have a pretty deep well in the wheel for the lug bolt/stud/nut, unfortunately this picture is the front, which has a shallow well and was easy to start by hand.



I love them, very easy to take wheels on and off this way.
Are this bolts or studs in the pic?
Looks like bolts
