Missing a stud (lug) that came with my new to me AG Ruger Mesh wheels. I can not find the exact size listed anywhere for what "tuner style" stud will fit.
Does anyone know the correct size??????
I think this MIGHT be correct but 14x1.50 Tuner Lug Bolt 28mm thread length not sure...and not sure if they are 28mm, 32mm etc as I don't know exactly where they are measuring from. I want to order some black ones as well but don't know the size.
I'm surprised a wheel made for a Porsche fitment uses a different seat than the standard radius or ball shaped seat of the OEM wheels. What you show in the eBay listing is a cone seat. OP, just to be safe, look at the lug bolts they provided to you with the wheels and see if they have that same angled top, or if they're rounded at the seat like your OEM bolts. M14x1.5 is correct though.

Yes, the seat is different then the OEM seat for the wheels. I was hoping to use my black lugs I had bought but they are way too long and the heads are too big as well. The offset of the Ruger wheels is different so I don't need to run spacers like I did on my turbo wheels.
I did appreciate the seller of my wheels here sending me the "tuner" studs but as one was missing and if going to buy some, might as well get black like I wanted, seems worth it to just buy a whole set.
I would post pics but waiting to have a full set of studs on the wheels before I drive it. Also, one of the TMPS is reading as a flat tire. May need to be driven a bit to reset, if not swap it out.

So if I’m not tracking this thing and it’s purely just to drive around and enjoy, lowering springs are not adequate? I’m sure they’re not as superior or configurable as coilovers but again it’s a car I’m just driving around to have some fun when I’m not driving the 4s sport turisimo. My options are leave it as is with stock springs, or stock with k&r lowering springs , I can’t justify the added cost for coilovers
As Riley points out indirectly here, these wheels require a conical or tapered seat lug bolt and you cannot use a normal ball/radius seat lugs bolt with them. You'll damage the bolt seat and they won't secure the wheel safely
Also keep in mind to the best of my knowledge you need tuner type lugs with these rims as there is very little clearance between the lug and the wall for a socket. Those don't appear to be the correct ones to me and the tuner ones can be had in black and look better than the standard hex style to me on those wheels.
