Jimbo Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 G,day, Was having a good squirt on THE Great Alpine Road & clunk clunk. Oh Dear I've done a diff ---- no, broken wheel stud & 2 loose wheel nuts, the heart was pumping a bit extra. Anyway got 15x7 performance rims--where is the best place to source new studs from without costing an arm & a leg. Also what length should they be & are other veh's using the same studs. thanks Boys...Jim... Quote
Riceburner Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 I got my new nismo ones from ebay, $20 for a full set. Seems unusual that they both would snap, any tyre monkeis been using a rattle gun on them lately? I do mine up with a torque wrench now as they only need 60ftlb. Quote
dat2kman Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 Google NICE Products, they have online catalogue, most auto accesory shops can get them in They do a stud in both 38 and 44 mm long. Go the 44's Thread is 12 x 1.25 mm I use their 75 mm ones with slip on spacets for race cars. They also do nuts. Quote
Jk_zeder Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 What Dat2kman said, we did all these on the 240 recently. We used the longer studs and we'll just cut them down. Nice Products part number - NS4570 – Availability : http://www.niceproducts.com.au/stockists.php Part Description. M12x1.25 Knurl Dia. 12.9 Length. 73mm Shoulder. 14mm Nut No. NN421 Grabbed them from Supercheap for $9 a pop? Quote
