Rear Wheel Studs

Post by garrytheskate »

'84 1.9 LT25 Camper
I have alloy wheels and the studs on the rear wheels look too short. What should the length of studs be?
Thanks

These wheels were on the vehicle when I bought it last July. Have had no problems driving round France. Could it be that spacers have been fitted, this I will have to check. What about the length of stud?

I had the same problem with borbet A's. I have fitted these longer studs from brickwerks and no problem after.

I've no great interest in wheels/tyres to be honest but every now and then an image comes up and certain expletives spring to mind. This being a forum of God fearing folk, I'll limit my language to what the fxxx?!?!?!
