HELP----->Long studs and 17in wheels? I have 1/2in long studs for racing in the back of my car and 12X1.5 long studs in the front for racing too.
How can I run a Z06 or the TT2 wheels or ANY wheel with these stud for that matter?
I hope I dont have to take them out?
But I dont want them to stick out either.
I was thinking perhaps Weld XP's would work since I have the long shank style lugs that are open?Do the XP's take the same lug as a Weld Draglite?

I WANT TT2's!!!!!!

Re: HELP----->Long studs and 17in wheels? well im not sure about TT2's or the XP series welds, but we run ZO6 wheels on ours with ARP 12mm extra long studs in the rear without a problem. we just used the stock open ended lug nuts with the out side threads as well and used the gray lug nut covers. the covers have just enough room to grab and you can tell the studs are pushing on them, but we havnt lost any yet. they say that the TT2's use an acorn style lug nut which would be the same as a stock style lug nut, so maybe if you could find a chrome lug nut cover and use stock lug nuts. that should work.

Re: HELP----->Long studs and 17in wheels? Just call Steve @ PPO and tell him you want some Bogart wheels and that way you wont need the longer studs to pass tech at the track. Steve can answer any questions you want. I know your thinking im crazy but I ran into that problem when I wanted to run some Draglites. The wheels are a little more pricey but in the long run you'll be happy with em. I'm saving up for some right now.

Will I be able to mount TTII's or Z06's without cutting the stud?
