Hello . I need some help and I know one of you have my answer , I hope. I have a 2006 sentra se-r spec v with brembo brakes . There is a couple of my cars here in P.C. , Florida . I was trying to make my car stand out . I ordered some 19" wheel package online and they are great looking . They said I would need a little 3mm spacer to make them fit . No go on the front . I contacted them and they can't take them back because the tires were mounted ( by them) . They sold me from ichibausa.com the right spacer and longer studs . Well , guess what . Now the studs are the right length but to small in the stud holes . So , what i am asking , is , Do any of you know where I can get the right studs ? I would appreciate any help...

19"s are awfully huge for a B15 (very few people even try 18"s). No wonder they didn't fit.

That said, how are they too small for the holes? Are the lugnuts not threading on or are the studs themselves not installing?

I'd start by measuring the stock studs and searching for the right ones by diameter, then length.

The 19" fit like a glove size wise . The studs they sent me fit real loose in the hole on the hub . The stock studs are fatter at the end that goes through the hub hole . I'm not no where a mechanic so it is hard for me to explain . I can put the rims on but I can only turn the lug nuts about one turn .

The studs barely clear the rims , So it doesn't really matter which lug nuts I use . But yes , I am using the brand new tuner lug nuts they sent me.
