Stud and nut conversion - Matt - 13-04-2014

Looking for something for 20mm spacers, what length size and thread etc do you guys normally go for?


Re: Stud and nut conversion - kentiiboii - 14-04-2014

With 15mm I'm using 70mm, so if I was you if go for 80mm.

As Kent said. 80mm. M12x1.25


You know where the button is Wink


RE: Stud and nut conversion - dr_jekyll - 14-04-2014

Anyone ever had problems with stud conversions? Been considering these


RE: Stud and nut conversion - Grant - 14-04-2014

Providing you do it right, there should be no issues at all.

IIRC, if you want to go on track, you will need open ended turner nuts. The track authority need to see the thread of the stud

I have had them on my car for a few years now. No issues. I did loctite mine into the hub though also.

I would measure the depth of the hub and then buy studs that are long enough to go all the way through the hub.

Yeah mine have about 15mm going into the hub so no problem there. But I also loctite them.

Ive been using them for a few years now without any issues.

Don't buy grayston it's!
The threads strip far too easily !!


RE: Stud and nut conversion - Matt - 10-05-2014

Well, 80mm is f*cking massive, once the wheel and spacer is on, it sticks out the end of the nut by 20mm so 60mm would have been fine


Christ knows where 80mm came from?


Re: Stud and nut conversion - kentiiboii - 10-05-2014

Well I had 80mm and had to cut 10mm off with my 15mm spacers.


RE: Stud and nut conversion - Pompey306mark - 10-05-2014

As I said thicker wheels. Centre of most wheels like cyclones or aftermarket stuff have deep faces.

Your steelies don't.


Re: Stud and nut conversion - kentiiboii - 10-05-2014

Didn't realise you was using steels. Then mark is correct, probably 60mm would do. You could cut yours down or ask company if they'll change out of Good will.


RE: Stud and nut conversion - Matt - 11-05-2014

They won't change as get are a being a lady garden lol. Time to get the angle grinder out
