Ok so I have a question about wheel studs for the 914. My car currently has wheel studs that are found on pretty much every car. Where the stud and lug nuts are two separate pieces. Well yesterday two of my studs came off with the lug nuts, and when I went to find replacement studs they looked like this. http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx19/19...zpsc833ab60.jpg Where the stud and lug is one piece. So my question is can I find wheels studs like are my car now, or will i just have to replace all my studs with the factory ones? Here's a picture of the stud and lug that came off my car if it helps. http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx19/19...zps88246fd3.jpg Sorry if I'm not being clear but its kind of hard for me to explain it. If you need me to try and clarify, just ask and I'll try my best to.

one piece wheel nut is OEM, the chrome job you have is aftermarket, usually on non-Fuchs wheels, like American Racing. what kind of wheels are you running? pics would be helpful.

I'll try to get more pics in a little bit. The wheels that were on it when I got it were dan gurney wheels. The wheels I just put on yesterday are Spirit of America Empi 8-Spoke. |
