Extended wheel studs for an RX-2
So I have been digging off and on for a few months now and a lot harder today. I would like to get extendd wheel studs for my RX-2. I have been able to find a stock replacment part number from Dorman. An old NLA part number from Mazdaspeed, but I am having no luck digging up the part number I need to make this work.
I did also come across something about a VW Bug shop that had something that will work but I am unable to find it again. I need help. Thanks guys.

Yup, just standard 12mmx1.5 studs. Are you using open end lugs? I just recently installed 2.25" studs on my 72 RX-2 and they are too long for my Revolution wheels which use these wacky shank lugs. The lugs actually bottomed out and started messing up the stud ends so I'm going to have to switch to the shorter 1.75" studs. Something you might watch out for if you're not using open end lugs.
