First, if you broke lug studs then they were a) too loose, or b) too tight. PERIOD. GET A NEW TORQUE WRENCH.
Second, if you want "better" studs, buy four sets of ARP studs and 7/16" X 20 pitch open lug nuts with a 19MM outside hex. If you work on your car and KNOW how to R&R the studs, it is actually pretty easy. For the rear you will need some serious air and impact gun to get the half shaft nut off and back on.
Third, if you need to verify the part number (any Pontiac dealer can help with that) I have some in bags and can check for you. If you NEED some studs and lug nuts ASAP, I have five of each. PayPal will work.
