Re: vw question
You can get conversion studs that replace the wheel bolts. They screw into the hub just like the wheel bolt (and have threadlocker on them) and then a regular lug nut gets threaded on the stud. H&R and some other companies make them.
Standard wheel studs press in from the backside of the hub, so there isn't any way to convert to a standard studs without replacing the entire hub to a different type. But, you don't need to do that because the conversion studs work perfectly fine.

Re: vw question
but be carefull when tightening the studs. the allen key opening at the top gets stripped very easily. and i'd throw some lock tight on there as well, when i converted my car to studs i ran them for a couple months, took the wheels off and the a few of the studs were loose. and i torqued them down to proper H&R specs.
