Default Two questions, ARP Studs and Hyperflashing?

I'm about to install 19x12 on the rear with 5/8 spacers. I did this on my 98 and I had to install longer studs. The problem is I do not remember what length of arp studs I used, can anyone help? I believe they offer 1.5" and 2" ones.

Next question is I have LED strips as my front turn signals. The stock turn signal harness has (correct me if I'm wrong) a positive, negative and neutral. The LED ones I have only had a positive and negative. This is causing them to hyperflash since the "neutral" is not being used. Anyone know of a solution I could use to fix this problem?

Btw- Anyone wanting to see the centennial rims on a widebody z06, Ill be installing everything during spring break so I should have some pictures for you guys soon!

I have no suggestion on the wheel studs but, you could try this to fix the hyperflash issues.

The hyperflashing comes from the LEDs drawing less current than an incandescent bulb.

There is no "neutral" wire. The 3 wires from the stock lights are for the dual filament bulb. 1 ground wire, 1 "turn signal" wire, and 1 "running light" wire.

I would think the hyperflash harness mentioned above would cure the rapid flashing issue. I installed one on mine due to hyperflashing from my LED taillights and it worked great.

For the Hyperflash, either a radioflyer harness or

Never mind! Just realized the harness goes in the dash! Thanks guys ill try this out and see if it helps.



When I installed the LED turn signals, I had to cut off the connectors and wire them wire to wire. So would I have to buy all new connectors and then buy the hyperflash harness?
