I can still mount my stock SS wheels with the extended Wheel Studs. As for new studs. Mine would not stay at 85# after installing them. Re-Torqued them to 110# until the Torque Wrench indicated they were tight. Today taking previous advice mounted new M/T Front Runners and Slicks. Torqued rears to 100# and fronts to #85#. |

Re: Wheel Studs
My bad, I thought it was a problem on a race car.

Re: Wheel Studs
Which would be the logical thing to do.

Re: Wheel Studs
I really think something is not right with the wheel vs the lug nut perhaps. So what if the shank was too long and bottoming on the stud ever so slightly? The result would be a wheel that was not being clamped as tightly as you think. It could allow the wheel to work on the studs and eventually break them. Maybe this came up before. You could face the shank on the lug nuts to shorten them up a touch if they were close.

Seems something here is preventing the wheel from being clamped tight. |
