These are the guys Sam...

Still not cheap, but they do have a best offer option. I was lucky enough to win one of their bid auctions and got mine for under £40, so you could hold on to see if they do any for the size you're after, but I wouldn't hold your breathe.

I think they make them themselves and they're great quality.

Those are fine, but you will have the chore of having to remove the old studs and fitting the new. The benefit of the ones I listed is that they just bolt on using the existing studs and new supplied stubby nuts, and then new studs are incorporated for you to use. The whole affair is much easier.
