I broke a wheel stud this morning, so I'm gonna replace them all with ARP studs. Are the lengths different for the front and rear? And does anyone know the length of the stock studs?

Re: wheel studs - need help asap please
its this simple, take a hammer, knock out a good one (you can drive safely on a minimum of 3 studs/lug nuts but keep em in a star kinda pattern) and drive up to murrays or a tire shop and have them measure it. Takes about a minute.
and a stud is a stud is a darn stud, you dont need "performance studs". the torque for our wheels is 100ft/lbs. no more. i'm 160lbs and i dont even have to lean into them to get them to 100ft/lbs. if you go tighter than that, you'll just wind up warping ur rotors. if they're rusting up on you, take a brush and clean 'em off or replace them, but either way, put a dab of antisieze on them and rotate ur tires every 5000 miles. I dont even use antiseize and my lugs have NO rust cuz i rotate my tires. makes them wear better anyways...2000 3.8L Camaro A4 Pewter Y87<br />K&N Filter, SLP Ram Air kit, Eibach Pro Kit, Flowmaster 80 series, Silverstars, NGK plugs and MSD Super Conductor Wires, Electric Water Pump

Re: wheel studs
I rotate my tires on a regular basis as well. I was getting them rotated when the stud broke.
Well, the reason I asked is if someone knew offhand, then I wouldn't have to do that. Isn't the purpose of this board to share information with one another?Last edited by memphis_raines; 05-09-2006, 11:48 PM.2000 3.8L Firebird, Silver Metallic<br /><br />\"Yes, London.
