    Default Wheel studs

    Iam thinking of doing a stud and nut conversion on the nova. Where is best to get them? What have you used ie length ect.?

    Plenty available on Fleabay or go to Rally Design (Raldes.co.uk) the latter have a selection on studs and nuts

    If you measure your wheel hole depth plus nut should give you an idea on length

    I keep thinking about getting some for the Sport!!

    As said stud depth plus wheel depth plus spacer plus a bit for good luck for your length measurements.

    Paul (RallyMarshal on here) has some lovely studs which self centre, don't cross thread and are wonderful to use, check this thread. Not cheap mind

    Once all tight the thread sticking out 5mm past the nut will look factory anything more like 10-15mm will look like a mistake, if your unsure start off just buying one thread as a tester.
