Cutting down wheel studs

[Rocko71]

I have to do the exact same thing to my car. I'm just gonna put the new studs on, and run an open 7/16 lug nut down, then trim it with a cutoff wheel. I dont see that this would cause a problem, but I guess I'll find out. I am planning on doing it this weekend, so I could let you know how it works out, if you want. I have to make the holes where the studs are pressed into the front rotor a little larger diameter, too. I couldnt find the same size knurl. I'm glad someone else is doing this too, I thought I was losing my mind. I had never heard of having to get longer studs just because of wheel thickness, but mine only catches a couple threads as is. let me know if you want me to post how it goes. I can do pics, too, if you want.
