Default Advice for studs and wheel spacers

OK, so I'm trying to use some hubcentric 15mm spacers on the rear and cant find a damn extended wheel stud with the correct knurl size for the hubs I'm using.



I am using Timken rear hub assemblies and they DO NOT use OEM size wheel studs in the rear. They use the same size as the fronts (why hyundai had differing wheels studs front/rear is beyond me)



So......I need extended wheel studs with the same knurl size as the fronts for the rears that are 15mm 'ish' longer.



I'd like to use stronger ARP studs as the car may be tracked more in the future as well.



I suppose I wouldnt mind using studs with a different thread pitch, which would require new wheel nuts for the rears, but they would need to be tuners lugs for my rims.



ANY help would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried, "H&R Wheel Studs"! Check out the chart for the size wheel studs you might need or give them a call. I hope this helps .

THanks man! I checked out the sizes from H&R and the tolerances still were not quite as close as I wanted. I went with some ARP's that I think will fit. I'll report back on how they work out.
