Wheel studs????
I have a couple of questions that I haven't been able to find in searches. 1st gens' don't come with regular wheel studs and lug nuts do they??. They have something different, I'm sorry I don't know what they are called but they have the stud and nut together as one piece. My GSL does not have this system in the front, it has regular wheel studs and lug nuts, but in the back, it still has the stock system. My only guess is that the previous owner converted the old system to regular wheel studs and lug nuts. My second question is did the GSL-SE come with regular wheel studs and lug nuts or did it come with the same front brakes as the GSL??

you can buy the studs and install them your self then get some lug nuts for the studs. your local auto depo will sell them..

The answer to your 2nd question is GSL-SE came with wheel studded brake rotor, different lug pattern that other Rx7 model cars. Also the brakes were larger than GSL.

i drilled the rear holes to .500 and installed ford taurus studs in the rear,the front was another story, the design of the hub precludes pressing in studs, so i got extra long moroso drag studs and cut the head off them then threaded thjem into the stock hub with super loc tite, the studs were all 12mmx1.50 pitch, i have a penchant for holeshots and with the 16''wheels the factory set up didnt stand a chance, l;ost both rears 2 days apart and did no body damage
