Wheel stud sizing...

I am needing longer wheel studs for both front and rear, have any of you replaced yours with longer ones, such as ARP or Moroso? If so, what size am I needing? I have the standard disks in front that came on the car (1991) , just aftermarket rotors, the rear has the PBR disks from an 89 IROC . Thanks for any help, I tried a search, but came up with nothing answering my question.

I will attach some pics showing why I need the extra length..

As you can see, the lug nuts only go on a few threads before the wheels are tight... No, I do not have spacers....

I haven't replaced my studs yet, but it's my to do list. I did find a link to some studs and lug nuts that Ground Control offers. The studs are $2.50 each, and the matching lugs are $1.25 each. They are 1/2", and not metric.

Here is a link to their web page. After you get there, go to catalog, then camaro. The studs are about half way down the page.

I am having the same problem with my PBR rear disk brake setup. I had my local speed shop order some longer ARP studs for me and they should be in tomorrow. I will let you know how it goes.

I did a link on this a few months ago- just finally posted a finished picture with the lugnuts on. I forgot to finish that link but its done now.
