Rear wheel studs "longer needed"
Does anyone make longer wheel studs for the rear.
I am running 92 NSX wheels on an 88 vert, and the stock studs are just shy by 1/4 lengh of the lug nut, I would like to have thread contact on 100%. The fronts are just fine.
The shoulder on the rear studs are longer than anything I have matched up soo far. Someone had to make some longer ones for racing but whom?

Ted, yes I have done the search.
Im looking for rear studs with the same shoulder as stock which is aprox 1 in. long. Rather than these " shown above" aftermarket 1/2 in. long shoulder type.

Technically studs have a two shoulders, one where the knurling is located on and one at the back, where is seats against the hub. I’m referring to the knurled portion or area.
On the stock studs I have. The knurled area is aprox. 1 in long, smooth with a 1/4 or 1/8 in. knurling band offset in the middle which is unusual amongst various manufacturers. I have looked for a similar replacement from another vehicle and all have had the wrong shoulder length "knurled area".

These listed here just look like standard studs which are readily availible.
But I could be wrong.

You've lost me.
I run ARP Camaro studs, they have the exact same knurl diameter and thread pitch, and are approximately 1" longer than stock, which works great on my race car.
