    wheel studs

    i have a wheel spacer on my front axle and need 4 wheel studs for it, i have tried all of the parts stores in town and no one can seem to find one that is the same or that even fits the spacer, does anyone know of any websites that i might be able to find them at?

    i told him to ditch them, this way we can get all of the lugs to match front and rear and correct me if i'm wrong but doesn't narrower front end = better turning radius

    Correction, if you take care of them they are fine. Ignore them, get cheap ones, let them get loose...your going to die in a fire ball

    these are actually really good spacers, the studs are a ***** to find but all in all i think i'm gonna hide them so that he can't put them back on

    have you punched out one of the studs and taken it in to the stores? Go to Advance and get them to let you look through their file of Dorman offerings
    If you like the spacers, leave um on, just retorque both sets of nuts from time to time
