Default 1/2" or 5/8" studs and billet specialties street lites...

Ditching the 31 spline trucrap for a 35 spline spooled setup in my 9", which studs do you recommend for my setup? Also what kinda stuff do I need to make them work with these wheels? I think i saw a picture awhile back with 5/8" studs and these wheels and it barely fits the opening in the wheel, not sure though. Also I'm assuming the 35 spline setup will be a remove/replace deal with my moser center section?

5/8 studs work fine, I think the early production ones the opening was a little small for the spacers to fit in and people had to turn down the spacers a bit.

You can just swap center (or spool only, they make a spool for the small bearing centers if thats what you have) and axles to 35 spline.

I have 1/2" studs now with B.S. wheels. What do I need to do to go to 5/8" studs?

I had to open up a very tiny bit the the holes in the billet spec. wheel to fit 5/8 studs, but easy to do.
