Has anybody had to get extended wheel studs for their M? The wheels I just got have a high disc on the front (for BBK clearance) and the studs barely stick out. I probably have enough room for 7 revolutions on the lug nut.

If anybody has, please provide info on where you got them from and what dimensions I need.

Thanks.

Nope, I have <o> disk on mine though. IMISMYG has <A> disk on his for bbk clearance and I don't think he needed extended studs. I've never needed longer studs but I think they just have to be the same thread pitch and size with of course the longer length. Maybe call up some auto parts stores or try googling who has some good ones. Last place to search for em would be a g35 forum, they might have done what your looking for.

If your saying that your getting 7 full turns then I think your good. Just make sure that they are tighten really good.

I'm hoping it's just a balancing issue. I'm going to get them balanced tomorrow morning so I'll keep everyone posted.

FYI: when I got my H&R 15mm spacers to clear BBK (at this point I desided to stay with OEM 19'' wheels) they came in with new longer studs, so I had to replace my original ones.

Some spacers come with studs and some requier you to change out your existing ones. I think even as low as 10mm spacers can come with studs you press in the spacer. BBK doesn't mean you need longer studs and a high disk rim. If the rims are made to clear BBK properly you shouldn't have to buy longer studs IMO.
