Hey guys, looking for a little assistance...I added 10mm wheel spacers for my new rims and as it stands I can only get 3 turns out of the lugs so I need longer wheel studs. Does anyone know if I can use any other GM studs off a GM truck or other that will fit a vette??? Thanks.

Go with ARP. They are the best on the market.

They are a little pricey but excellent quality.

Less than 4 hours I'd think to replace 20 studs

I talked to my mechanic and he said it would take about an hour if he did the "short cut" method or up to 3 hours to take the hub completely off. Doesn't matter though since I just bought another new set of rims and it doesn't look like I'm going to put them on the car this year...so spring it is!
