I am needing to replace my rear wheel studs with longer studs. Can someone tell me where to start? I have the RS 2SS A-6. Just currious if this is a difficult task and if the axles need to be pulled? Thank you

Holy crap? Why? What are you putting on?

You'll find your answer quicker in the wheel section maybe.

I used moroso studs on my 04 cobra. Worked like a charm.

I made my own stud remover/installer tool and also had to turn down the knurl to get the press like I wanted.

Summit will have what you need.

ur only option for the actual studs last I checked are arp ford studs I forget the exact kind, but they are on my car and work like a charm.

Can I ask why you want longer studs?

I'm just curious.

Sure. I bought some wicked black and titanium color wheels. The front ones went on just fine. The back wheels required am 1/8" spacer to clear brakes. Once the spacer is on, the lug nuts only turn 4 times before getting tight. I wasn't comfortable with that so I located some studs that are 1/4" longer. Now I need to instal
