I just did this last summer, got them from summit. let me see if I can find the exact part for you.

ARP-100-7712

I added S5 TII wheels to my vert with 225/50 sumitomo tires. Needed a 7/32" spacer, so I needed the longer studs to make it work.

No problem. Now I need to slighly roll my front fenders for a little extra clearance. I get occasional light rubbing.

THOSE ARE THE WRONG STUDS!

These are the ones you want, in either 2.5" or 3.25" lengths. With 3.25" in front and 2.5" in the back it ends up being ~1" longer all around, with the front being slightly longer than the rear.

Hmmm... that was supposed to be funny, but now looks kinda rude. I didn't mean it to come out that way, Black91n/a.
