Just put 80mm studs on (pics)

[Van Westervelt]

I just sent them an email. I dont think their site is fully setup, expecially for online commerce. We'll see if they write back.

Great thanks man. Tell me what the say.

[Rocla]

Um no, :finger:






Well obviously it doesn't because that is how long the bolts stick out the back of the stock bottlecaps.

Ummm. obviously you don't understand completely what is the difference in original bolts and those studs...

Look closely the holes in brake dics, theyhave no thread. Therefore the the non threaded "stopper" portition goes thrue the dics and stops when the nonthreaded section hits the actual hub. That basicly means that inner threaded section on stud can be ~5 shorter compared the threaded section that comes through teh original rim.

Think it over, you'll get it.

EDIT:just try it, take rear wheel and brake dics off and put original bolt as long as you can and see if it spins.

Ummmm, that has absolutely nothing to do with what I said. WITH the bottlecaps there is 1" or so on the backside of the wheel. That is what I said.
And I know exactly what these studs do. My whole point was I was concerened about how many threads are threading into the hub. I expected the hub to have more threads than 6-7 that is the only thing I didn't know.

but half of that 1" has to go through the brake rotor before it even gets into the hub. just stop arguing about it because you are obviously wrong..

Well, I'd say it is all about what you said.

Stud inner thread lenght has very little to do with what you said.

Meaning that you can't figure out how long the base of stud should be by looking original bolt and rim.

The inner thread partition lenght has nothing to do with rim you use, It should be selected by the thickness of the hub, as said many times earlier on this topic.

Jeez, how old are you guys? Just post pics of your erect penises so we know who wins, and let's move on.

First post of common reason/sence since the original poster(well almost...). Geeze, all of the sudden I wish jordan was back....

All I really want to know, is if the lug studs are on a runway that is a huge belt that moves at the speed of light............................................. ....

That's because I was talking about the bolt not the stud. Two different things. You said that if the bolt was 1" long behind the bottlecap that the bolt would hit the e brake.....

Remember this?

If the inner threaded part of the stud would be an inch long, it would most likely hit the e-brake mechanism(or the actual brake mechanism with drum brake e30's), whichwould be disasterous.

do you really want to see my penis? if so, send a PM..... :crazy:

I don't see the big deal in clearing this up...unless it gets ugly.
And I've already admitted I didn't know there were only 6-7 threads in the hub...nullifying my worry...because theres nothing that could really be done about it. Want me to bend over as well.

Sweet Jesus, I didn't. Learn to read man, that part of the sentence has not even the word bolt.

This is turning into argue, and we know about arguing over the net.

I'll post pictures later, and they will not be about my penis.

Then it was entirely pointless to even post that because it had nothing to do with what we where talking about.

And you are challenging me on something I said that you don't understand. Because what you posted was pointless. And now we are argueing about that. Are we done.

OK, I just installed my studs, and cross threaded them, so I pulled out my drill, cleaned out the threads, and JB welded them in. Time to autocross!!!!!

That's more like it.


Ok, I started this fucking mess. Sorry, I should have gone out and looked at the threads first. I've added this to my "don't fucking do again list". I admitted wrong, can we be done.
