I need longer studs
I have a 4th gen rear off a 97'. Trying to install some vette wheels but the studs are too short and I'm rubbing this part that sticks out on the inner well. So not sure if I should get spacers or try to bang out the part that sticks out. So I need to get new studs and replace the old ones. How long are the stock ones and how long should I get for the new ones?

I'm not familiar with knurl diameter either. So I'm not sure which ones to order. If anyone can help the sooner the better. Thanks

Ok so I can only find a 12.80mm Knurl the stud is 12mmx1.50 RH overall length is 54mm compared to the stock 41.5mm studs. Will the 12.80 fit in the 12.73mm knurl size?

Re: I need longer studs
a trick to help them in is to freeze the studs. shrinks them and then they go into the hub easier.
