Longer than 3 inch wheel studs??
« on: June 01, 2004, 12:56:00 AM »
I just received some 3 inch moroso wheel studs and they are too short!!
   I have centerline rims for my car ,well by the time I get the rim on with the 1/4 inch retaining plate then the 1 inch lug nuts there ain't no thread left.
  Does anyone have a contact # for extra long wheel stud supplier.
   OK I'll quit whining now....

As I read the rules, the end of the stud is not required to stick through the nut, as in NHRA rules. Only requirement is 5/8 thread engagement.  You might try ARP for some help if you still want longer studs.

Thanks....That's a good point about the thread engagement,the studs they sent have no threads on the very end 1/2 inch.....if they had threads all the way to the end it would work.I'll check out the ARP site
