I bought a pair of those for a V70R I had since I figured the eventual buyer would expect the car to appear stock. The pair certainly made it much easier to line-up the bolt holes and keep them lined-up until a couple of bolts were started.

I'd have had studs installed on my BMW even if I hadn't known I'd be tracking the car. I just find phosphate-coated studs plus nuts easier to deal with than I do OEM bolts.
