I bought a set of aftermarket C6 Corvette hubs and I had bought a set of ARP wheel studs for late model GM's like Camaro's, Corvette's etc. They have a knurl diameter of .509 and knurl length around .315. I knocked the studs that came with the aftermarket hubs out and they are actually a .568 knurl. The only quality wheel studs I can find in a .568 are from ARP and have a knurl length of .710. The question is, by the time you add a rotor and the depth of the wheel pad, am I going to run into any problems with that much extra knurl? Otherwise, I guess I am left with the unknown studs that came with the replacement hubs. They are class 10.9 bolts. The other reason for changing studs was to have the same front and back and longer studs.

Unless you just have to have Arp studs MSI Racing has a wide selection of studs or can make custom ones.

No preference. All I could find was ARP and Moroso and the only company that had a .568 was ARP. I will check them out, much appreciated.

Looks like they have a 12 mm stud for a Subaru with a .568 dia X .250 long knurl
