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 |

I wouldn't buy bargain studs from anyone. I installed my long ones 15 years ago and have never had to replace one. GT flares and big spacers up front for different wheel offsets forced me to install very long ones. Good return on investment, maybe $7 ea. back then for 100mm studs and getting cheaper by the year.
If it's a track car it doesn't matter, but if it's a street car and you want to use BBS wheels, or any with center caps, the cap won't go on if your studs are too long. I think the spacer referred to with studs installed into them are usually adapters from 4 to 5 stud... not allowed on the track. |
