Default Lug Studs & Nuts 2003 Part Number & Availability

I have a stripped lug (wheel) stud and the dealers around here (Maryland) don't seem to be stocking them. Can anyone help with an urgent need. I need to replace them before Friday to go to OC.

If I were closer, I've got at least 20 sitting around the garage, but there's no way I could get them to you in time. Check in the Drag racing/Road racing sections of the forum. Those guys tend to change them out more often than most and may have some old ones sitting around if you can find someone local. Another option would be DRM. Randy was able to get some ARP studs over here to me in less than a week when I needed them last minute, and in the states he could just overnight them to you if he's got them in stock. For the lug nut, just go to NAPA/Advanced Auto/ect. and pick up a 12x1.5 cone-seat lug nut. A plain open-ended one shouldn't be more than $3 and will get you by until you can get some nice looking ones.

Thanks Lancer. I went to Autozone and bought a couple of studs (they're 5 mm shorter than the stockers but it worked) and picked up some cheapo nuts. It is NO FUN punching the old stud out and putting the new one in without removing the Z06 caliper. It takes beaucoup patience but it's possible.
