Extended lug studs

Alright to fit the 265 dunlops on the front I'm going to seed some more room in the front so maybe a 5mm space if not a bit more. I personally believe that if you go over 3mm for a space that you should run extended studs.

Anyone know where I can find some extended lug studs and maybe some lug nuts to go with them?

Let me know! Thanks guys!!

I just installed arp 100-7708 extended studs and 15mm spacers. They are plenty long enough and were fairly inexpensive at summit racing

Wonder if you'll have to pull the hub. It's hard enough fitting replacement stock studs in there. There's only one spot, and it is a tight fit.

I might get different hubs just to swap them out.

I got the 7708s too (from Jegs) and no way in hell you can get them in without removing the hub.

I'm gonna pickup a set of Moteki sr48s as the stock lug nuts are just about bottomed out.

Did you have to pull the hub out?? And did you hammer the old ones out?? Or pressed them out??

The hubs will need to be removed for the front, but they fit in the back just fine. I hammered out the stock studs and stuck the new ones in and sunk em in by threading on some lugs and torquing them down
