    wheel stud question

    hey i just picked up a set of motegi Mr7's 16"

    annnnd i went to install them only to find out that my wheel bolts are to big, and dont fit down into the holes on the rim..

    so what are my options? just swap over to wheel studs? and if i do that is there any special ones that i should use?

    thanks, chuck

    if your bolts don't fit into the holes, studs aren't going to either.

      The way you worded your question either means the shaft is too wide (that's what she said) or you just need tuner lugs. I'm guessing it's the latter, so either you need tuner lug bolts, M12x1.5 or you can swap to wheel studs + tuner lug nuts. Oh yea and make sure your shafts match your nuts.

          hey, OP...

          turner sells 19mm and slim 17mm nuts for stud kits. the 17mm slim works for most of these issues
