Rim issue!
Got some rims that fit 4x110, but they have a elongated hole for multiple patterns. They came with the proper lugs, but since the FB hubs use threaded lugs I am currently unable to use the new rims.
Is there a threaded rod I can use to thread into the hub, then bolt the rims on, or vice versus, thread the rod into the new lugs then into the hub?

It came with lugs. They are the same diameter as the original Mazda lug, but the two are slightly different threading, I assume the new rim lugs are imperial thread, and the original Mazda ones are metric. So I think I'll need pieces of rod with both threading on each end. :S

Take your lugs and a wheel to a tire shop. They can get you the right thread stud and the right length. Then just put them into your hub, tighten them down and stick your wheels and lugs on.

Barghle, my hunt for Longer lug studs are proving to be bawls. The problem is the rims use special lug nuts to deal with the uni-lug holes, but I can't seem to find lug studs that are a similar design. I'd like to stay away from welding threaded stud into the lug nuts to make them lug studs.
