I have a 2008 Apex that has the older style hubs and I just bought some new ITP wheels that requiure me to get longer studs for the rear hubs. Short of either spending about $9 ea from G-Force or just removing the old stud and using bolts does anyone have any suggestions on where else I might find longer studs that are not so spendy or is it ok to just use bolts in the hubs? I am a bit afraid of the bolts comming loose.

I had the same issue. I purchased them from Rocky Mountain ATV $5.92 each. Still a little spendy, but better than $9 each. They are wheel studs for a Honda TRX 450R. I did have to drill the holes just a hair bigger and used a press to install the new ones. I wouldn't want to risk going with bolt and nut set up.
