57mm bolt on spacers. what size studs will i need?
So I bought a set of 57mm bolt on wheel spacers from ebay but it turns out the seller had taken out the wheel studs before selling them. Anyone have a set and remember what size studs you are using?
I was thinking about using 66mm studs but they seemed a bit short so 72mm might be too short for the job as well. I also found 100mm studs but they will probably be too long.
If 72mm won't work I'll just buy the 100mm's and cut them down a bit.

What kind of moron would take the wheel studs out? Are you sure these aren't for late model Porsche cars that bolts the wheels onto the spacer? The holes aren't threaded?

Holes aren't threaded. There are groves where the old studs were seated. 80mm OEM studs were something like $20 each last I checked so that might have been some incentive. Thank goodness Paragon has 100mm studs for $6.95 each.
