longer wheel studs?

[kevsta]

Has anybody got any leads on where I might find some extended wheel studs for an 80?

I've got some pass-through type wheel spacers, they're only thin, 6.5mm , but it doesn't leave a lot of thread for the nuts, especially so on the locking ones.

has anyone seen these about before?

Got a email from Joey at Whit's End recently about wheel studs. Had a picture or two studs one longer and one shorter. Might be worth a look

Look for Lexus IS250 wheel studs. Same specs just a little bit longer, maybe 5mm.

I know I need these for the fronts but does anyone know if I need them for the rear as well?

I have the exact same set up and question as the OP

Thanks for the recommendation....I'm going to try toyota parys first as I understand the ARP studs need a press which I don't have.

Pressing is the best way to install any lug stud, can hammer them in, but is less than ideal.

You can press them out/in with a large G clamp, or vice, a deep socket, and a hammer to tappy-tap-tap on the flange to help seat them.

I will take the advice of those more experienced and wiser! G clamp it is. Looks like it will provide even continuous force.

Does anyone have a part number for a slightly longer than factory wheel stud for front and rear? I got alloy wheels and could use about 12-15mm. ARP or OEM preferred.

Thx!
