i have 2.5" studs on my front hubs, here is a picture with no wheels on, i will take pics of them with wheels in a little bit. now i will note that stock wheel lug nuts will not fit on these studs unless you use a spacer for your wheel, so you can get some open lugs from NAPA for pretty cheap. i have ARP 2.5" long studs for the rear too, but have not gotten around to putting them on.

I actually have open ended shank lug nuts. The stock studs are just way to short and not sure if I should go with 2.5's or 3.25's.

I dont have any pics but I run the 2.5's up front and 3.25's in the rear without an issue. 2.5 should do just fine. I will say it looks goofy with my street wheels on.

before i got my custom spacers, i had the open face lug nuts, and just just threw my old lug nuts over those (didnt tighten them to much, didnt want to mess up the torque settings) just for cosmetics, didnt look to bad. i will take a pic today after work with both setups.

I just ordered up 20 ARP 3.50" studs ($120 from Summit) to go with the C6 ZO6 wheels we'll be running this year on the auto-x courses.

Because race car safety and aesthetics.
