Is the most common length for a wheel stud for fuchs rims 45mm? Are the rear lugs supposed to be longer at 52mm, or are they also 45mm?
Also, why are wheel studs 7 dollars a stud? Have to buy 20 studs, 140 for studs is a little crazy |

Interesting. I wonder if those are legal for the track. From an engineering standpoint I don't see much of a difference.
Every opening in a piece introduces a potential stressor. These holes are round so it's as good as it can get, but there are 10 instead of 5 with the offset, maybe several landings for the nuts, and maybe more weight as well. On the street it may not matter for sure. None of this helps with your original question though. I just went through my studs and don't have any stock ones to measure, so I'll not hijack the thread any further. Cheers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) Good luck! |
