Wheel Studs @ Mazdatrix... no '84 GSL? How about JEGS?
Mazdatrix only has press-in wheel studs for the GSLE, anyone know if it's the same for the GSL (even though bolt pattern is different?)
Wheel Studs, Lug Nuts, Spacers, Valve Stem Caps, Wheel Locks
trying to fit aftermarket rims, so I needed a longer bolt. Was honestly hoping for just an easy solution like a 2 inch "Lug Bolt" instead of the 1.5 inch that seems universal to all models.
~~~ Trying to see which JEGS studs I can order for my car. Anyone know what size I should get?

This is the only RX7 specification they have, but it's for the FC which has completely different rotors.

Third from the bottom on the MazdaTrix page you linked above would be for the GSL (any 12A car).
If none of your threads are stripped, you can simply screw in all 16. Any local shop might have them as well. There are others out there too, like these by Gorilla: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/gor-77737xl/overview/
Also, if the threads are stripped on the rears, you can press the studs in using a standard 0.50" stud I believe. In the front they pretty much have to be threaded in.

EDIT: Maybe I'm confused about what you're asking? The reason there are no press in studs listed for the GSL (or any other 12A car) is because the GSL uses lug bolts not lug nuts like the GSL-SE. Thus, in order to get studs, you have to thread in the the fronts, and either thread in or press in the rears if the threads are stripped. There are no press in studs for the 12A cars by default.
