Default where to buy 3" wheel studs

i've seen the ARP 2.5" studs at several sponsors sites, but havn't seen any 3"ers, anyone know where to find some?

Unless you pull your axles, I don't think you will beable to get them in there. I went to O'Reilly's and bought some for my car. The thread length was normal they just didn't have the little non threaded nipple on the end. I had to dremel the "nipple on the end of the stock ones to get them to come out. Then the new ones slid right in no problem. But I have TCS and ABS, so if that matters. Just thought I'd tell ya. Good luck.

If your car has ABS you can install the rear studs without pulling the axles. If it does not, pull the axles. The GM studs are long, but the last 1/2" is not threaded. I switched to the ARP's and prefer them.
