Default ARP wheel studs

the factory wheel studs on the LS1s suck! I looked at my lugs (factory) and the engagment is only like 1/4". I am kind of one of those people that alway worrys when racing! Now the ARP studs from Thunder are 2.5 some one said that is still sock size but stronger. So does any one sell 3.5 ones! THANKS

I have the ARP studs and they are longer than stock. They stick out maybe 1/4 in past the lug nuts. They are 2.5in long. You don't want the 3.5in long wheel studs because they will stick out way past your lugs.

The ARP studs will allow you to use your plastic chrome or black lug cover caps. GM does sell a longer stud - I think it is 3.5'' - they are inexpesive as well. However they do stick out quite a bit and you can't use your factory caps.
