    Looks like it will be a tight fit. I am a few days away from installing my studs. Did you get them from Motorsport Hardware

      Bought the nut off Amazon.ca... had to buy tuner nuts because my said tuner wheels have just no clearance for standard bolts or nuts... does that makes me a tuner ?? :roll:

      they seems to be pretty identical to the ones on Motorsport Hardware...

      The studs are coming from Ebay... called the seller and they confirmed that they are grade 10.9 and that they are made in USA... The quality seems good and their store seemed to contain OK stuff.

      Didn't know about Motorsport Hardware. Seems to be good quality.

            I get it! I sold something to a member here Panici and it was a task to send him the parts

                Went to the scale:

                Total weight:
                front 640
                rear 580
                total 1220



                Right:
                front 310
                rear 290
                total 600



                Left:
                front 320
                rear 290
                total 610



                Empty gas tank, spare tire in the trunk, no a/c, without me..

                Pretty happy with the weight distribution.

                    Left is 610Kg total with 290 rear and 320 front.

                    Right is 600kg total with 290 rear and 310 front.

                    The first shot is 640 front axle, 580 rear axle...

                                Could not been more right ...



                                I still don't know if I will do a pan modification or a skid plate... did you get your answer on pan mod vs oil starvation?

                                If I go with skid plate I think I will do it myself... ordering a steel from USA with the duty fee and delivery and exchange rate would not make sense...
