Question Wheel Studs

Putting 15x3.5, 15x10 prostars wondering if ARP 2.5" studs will be long enough. Thanks

Honestly, I would go with the 3.5" studs. Here's a little write up that I did a little while back. Has a picture of the 3.5" studs vs the stockers. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...837&highlight=
You don't want to mess with busting off studs. Here's a good friend of mine ripping off the studs that come with an aftermarket 12 bolt...

I had a set of the studs that came on my moser axles sheer off while I was going down the highway. I got it off to the side before the wheel shot off.

I have 3" ARP's. I would go with a 3.5"s next time around.

i have 2.5" arp's on my fronts and i think im going to get 2.5" for the rear
with the spacer in the front the studs stick out past the rim like 5mm (guess) legally its suppose to be 12mm, i might get 3" for the front and put the 2.5" in the rear. i havent decieded yet........ btw i have the same wheel setup as u

i can show u sometime if ur up at ned or if im ever down at noyzee's or something

Doesn't the LT1's differ from LS1's.
