[Fot] Followup to TR7 wheel stud question

[Jim]

Dorman "166" wheel studs are what everyone pushes as "fitting a TR7".
Correct knurl diameter... but they have a mushroom head, not countersunk.
That's my other option, run a set of them on the lathe and cut the head down
to fit the hubs.  
 
Just wondering if there was an off the shelf solution that won't break the
bank.

I know it was in a past millennium, but I recall buying wheel studs out of
the orange & black Dorman drawer displays, found at any real auto parts and
many hardware stores. The prices did not make you decide between mortgage
and parts. 
What happened to that source?
Oh! That's right. There are no more real auto parts or hardware stores.
