wheel spacers

[jltibbs]

i got 7/16" (for the rear) and 1/4" (for the front) spacers. being the idiot i am, i tried to put them on with my original studs. they did not fit. anyone have any ideas on what i need to do?

i am guessing get longer studs. that is just my common sense. I remember reading somewhere a write-up someone did on wheel spacers on a 2001 and they also put longer studs on. I have never done this but aside from rusty/stubborn studs, replacing the studs should be simple.

Yeah, just get longer studs. They just press out. Then you press them in and torque them down (using the spacer or wheel) a few times to set them properly.

well, i had that much figured out. the problem is i cant find any longer studs that will fit in the hub. i found the dimensions of tne normal studs and just tried to find some with the same dimensions only longer. no luck
