I did exactly what you are saying for the same reasons. I used 
Wheel-Tite #28070 from Pep Boys on both my '67 vintage race Midget and 
on my '72 Midget when I converted from wire wheels to aluminum wheels. 
Because one stud spun on me, I welded the heads to the back of the hub 
and now they will NEVER come loose. They are readily available and not 
expensive.

I wrote an article detailing the entire conversion for the now defunct 
Sprite Midget Magazine. I'd be glad to send it to anybody who is interested.
