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

They are any length you want them, or better yet, you need them.

I tried several different lengths and finally just got tired of running out of thread so i got a set of 100mm wheel studs all around.
Now i can run any spacer combination i need (different offset for street and track wheels) and not have to worry about thread engagement.

The 100mm studs are ~$10 a piece ...
