Default Whats the size of our wheel studs

I snapped a wheel stud and Im only driving on 3 on the back rim. Plan on going to the auto store tonight after work and seeing if they have studs in stock or can order me one. Can you guys tell me what the size is or do you think they will have that information in their computer system? Not sure if I would trust it though if it is so Im asking here for confirmation.

I don't recall, but the studs I found at AutoZone wnere too short. Probably set for a Honda. The local dealership did not have them for a RD Tiburon, but the gold studs for the Sonata were the same size and worked fine.

Once again autozone fails. Advance Auto had the proper studs in their computer system and in stock when I needed some.

No auto part store seemed to have the longer studs used in our cars. I am actually running a short one and it barely works with my wheels. One of these days I will replace it with the correct one.
