Default Where 2 buy longer wheels studs?

Hi folks, I'm adding ~10mm wheel spacers on the front and need longer studs. Can someone help with a weblink?
With searching I found out they are 12x1.25 and are about 45mm long now. I think I need an extra 20-25mm length.

Thanks in advance.

if you are adding 10mm spacers wouldnt you need just 10mm more? I dunno where to get them though. I want these too because I plan to add spacers myself.

We have the NISMO long hub bolts.

The ones you are $56.95

We have either 13.0/60 or 14.3/60

Let me know if that will help you. each set comes with 10 bolts.

tonywenzel,
I'd like more than 10mm because I don't think the current # of thread turns engaged is enough on my iForged wheels (~5 turns) versus stock 9 turns. I figured 20mm extra would be perfect.

EL PAALO,
It's not clear to me which are the ones I should get. I'd like to keep the factory lug nuts, but it's not required. I don't want to drill the hub either.

I guess I need the Knurl diameter and length of the stock hub first... anyone know?

Jason,
How do 13.0/60 or 14.3/60 differ from stock? I guess 15mm longer but is 13/14.3 the diameter. Would I need to drill out the hub?

Something so simple is complicated
Thanks!

Honestly. I have no clue what the difference is.. All 3 packs of wheel studs were sitting in front of me and I was trying to see a difference.



Nothing just from looking at them. I didnt measure.

I'm guessing it's the number of threads per inch.
So stock are 12/1 whereas those are 13 or 14.3/1.
See it now?

Anyone buy the Nismo studs? Did you require new lug nuts? What did you get? Adapter for lug wrench??
THANKS!

We were holding them up to a set of stock lugs yesterday. I need to pull a set of stock lug nuts and see if they fit on the nismo studs. It looks like they would. But at some point I will try it today.

nope.... the studs on our car are metric. Metric does not measure the "threads per inch". They use a Pitch measurement. Our studs are 12mmx 1.25 pitch.

The 13 and 14.3 is knurled diameter in mm. On older Z's the front and rear studs had a different knurled diamter. I think the 350Z is the same.

ahhh, that makes sense. I guess the question now becomes is 13mm the stock front diameter and 14.3 the stock rear?

Jason, I need the front so let me know if the 13's are right and I'll buy them. Let me know if your tech knew how to replace them:

OK,

I took a picture of the FRONT and REAR STOCK bolts that are on the Z. Below are the LONG HUB BOLTs that fit the same Lug Nuts.

I hope this helps. Ill ask a tech when they get in, I missed yesterday sorry.

Will do today.

Front = 1 5/8"
Rear = 1 3/4"
13.0/50 = 2 1/8"
13.0/60 = 2 1/2"
