Is it doable? I bought a 12 bolt that has 5/8 wheels studs in it and i have a set of street lites with slicks on them that fit the studs on the 12 bolt, but i drive the car on the street a lot and i have a set of zr1's with street tires on them that i would like to still be able to use if its possible.

The wheel holes will have to be drilled out to 11/16 so that the rims will fit over the shank after the wheel stud threading..

The aluminum spacers should fit in the zr1 lug nut hole..

Are you using the moser8080 5/8 wheel studs?

AndersonsSS01

yes they are the moser 8080's

I made them fit on my stock 16" rims, the zr1's would fit but the spacer was a tighter fit vs the 16" rims which had a lot of space!

Check out my build thread in my sig and I have a few pics of it.

What did you do about the taper in the wheel where the stock acorn style nut would have gone into it?

Most of the taper gets drilled out, then gets covered with the aluminum spacer, then you use the new lug nuts that come with the wheel stud kit..

Drilling stock rims is doable, you also have to drill your rotor plates as well..

Take your time, use a good plug in drill. Battery ones won't survive. Take a little out at a time and keep check fitting, you want a tight fit with no slack.. Take the least amount of material out for your rims to fit.

Good luck

Update:

Drilled my wheels out with just a regular black oxide 11/16 bit on a half inch drive milwaukee plug in drill. Cut through them like butter and they fit perfect. Haven't driven it yet on them since my motor is out of my car but I don't see why I should have any problems.
