Default C5 Wheel Stud Size Info

Can anyone tell me the length and knurl size of the OEM stock front wheel studs that hold the front whhels on a C5, 1999? I'm looking at some longer ones that have a .504 knurl and need to know if that would press in OK. I also need about an extrra 3/8 inch on the length of the OE stud to work with my offset on my new RT-S Weld front racing rims that require a 6-8 mm spacer to clear my front OE calipers. Thanks

RockAuto is a good source for this info. Go to their catalog and look for Lug Stud under Wheel & Tire. Dorman #610-254.

Now, look up a 2007 Chevy Equinox. Dorman #610-323. Same specs as the Corvette stud, but 12.5mm longer. We used these studs on my race car (not a Corvette) when we needed a little extra length to fit some different wheels. Cheap, and they worked great.
