With the lugs, will that work? Cutting off the end and then using loctite to secure them? Could be a great idea it it works out!

If you're buying wheel studs that are meant to be pressed in from the inside, why not have the drums/discs drilled for the proper interference fit (and the insides spot faced) and press them in the way they're supposed to be done? I know it's a little more work, but I don't know if I'd trust a threaded piece that's loctited in place, especially with no interference fit. Doesn't sound too safe to me....
