Yes, if you can find them. You may need to slightly enlarge the hole due to the ARP studs have a slightly larger knurl.

They are .480 as opposed to the stock .475...are 8740 material, and have the bullet nose on them.....cool.

Did you figure out if these would work? Found it on Amazon a little cheaper. I’m looking to do this for my new wheels.

How about these? I got new wheels and might need spacers. I don't think the 1.75" studs will be long enough but those 3" Moroso looks to have 1/4" of no threads on the ends.
These are also a bit better priced.

Also how much trouble will the .480 knurl cause?

Hey let us know what you end up doing. I’m not doing this anything soon anymore because I was able to get clearance for my new rims and took the spacers off. So I’m happy with my thread engagement. Next year I plan on doing this job though with rear. I’d like to know which studs work for you.
