C8 extended wheel studs
I needed to install extended front wheel studs and search the forums for some time without success and ARP didn't have a listing for the C8 either so I thought I'd share what I learned. I ended up measuring the stock front wheel studs and called ARP. Steve at ARP was very helpful, reviewed the measurements and confirmed that the 2010-2017 Camaro wheel studs fit the C8. Hope this info would help others looking to upgrade.

Right, both Camaro and the C8 hubs seem to be using studs also used on Silverado trucks. The front tip of the OEM lug nuts have quite a bit of tapered tip. If you only need moderate extension, you could just replace them with same length aftermarket studs with no tapered tip, and get quite a bit more thread. This way, the lugs would not be too long for any application, including OEM fitments..

Looking at the same issue - need to install 5mm spacers in the front for wheel clearance, and not comfortable on the super short factory studs
How much length did the ARP Camaro studs add? I know it's sometimes a huge pain to do - were the fronts on the C8 relatively straightforward with enough room to knock the studs out without disassembling anything more than the brakes?
Thanks!
