Do the wheel studs differ from an Enthusiast to a Performance?

I would like to get something longer than what came on my enthusiast, and at the same time hopefully something a little stronger. I've replaced one already, and broke a second one today changing tires (by hand) at the divisional.

Anyone recommend any place to look?

Studs are all the same...

Performance 18" six spoke wheels have long Capped wheel nuts..

I'd say you should torque your wheels to 80lb, rather than let some shop monkey use an impact gun on them...

A 1&1/2 foot torque wrench clicks at 80lb when you feel you are exerting thirty-five pounds of force. That's exactly the reason you should have one.
P.S. after use, set wrench to Zero for storage...

Performance Nissan Parts has NISMO long hub bolts 50 & 60mm. I believe its about $108 + shipping. Make sure to get ones with the thicker knurled part!!

Btw, the front rotor hat is just a bit thicker than the rear. If you are using a spacer you might want to go with the 60mm up front and the 50mm for the rear. The front rotor is about 4 threads wider.

I've been using a torque wrench on them, so any problems so far have been caused by myself. I replaced the prior one I broke, and will probably just buy some spares to replace any others I may break at future events, so that I am prepared instead of left hanging.

I would get your torque wrench calibrated and don't forget you should re-torque the lugs after 50-100 miles.
