Default Switch to 1/2" wheel studs

Anyone run 1/2" studs instead of 12mm x 1.5s? I see they are listed on Thunder Racings website. Only issue I see is that the knurl on stockers is .509 and on the 1/2" ones is .625. Think a tenth of an inch would make them a total bitch to press in?

They are half the price of the longer 12mm ones and I need that extra length to pass NHRA tech.

Don't do it unless you can get your axles drilled. There is no way you'll get a stud with a .625" knurl into a .509" hole.
