    Wheel studs conversion!?

    Since I'm running a new wheel tire combo in my 5 e36 lug swapp e30 I will require wheel studs since the rear spacers are 20mm and the front about 5mm and of corse the factory bolts are too short now.

    Where can I source a complete set at good price plus wheel locks nut that fit in these studs?

    Thanks

        Thanks. Now that I see on TMS, they sell longer black type OEM lug bolts, just what I need!:D Only problem I see, no bolt locks longer....wonder is someone makes them, other wise I will have to make my own set of bolt wheel locks.

          The thing is, you won't really need special lug bolts, because if you have 90mm studs, no wheel thief will have a lug socket deep enough to remove your lug nuts.

            That's kinda true for the studs, of corse depends on how much "meat" is left ebfore the nut get tight.

            I'm ordering the longer bolts at the end.

              Most studs for our cars use a 12x1.5 thread, same as hondas and other jap cars. Just get some lock nuts for a honda.

                I think Bimmerworld studs are a great value.
