What kind of rubber are you going to mount on those? Would love to see them mounted up on the car.
Long story. Front fitment a little different from rear, and I want to fix it. I add 5mm spacer, but needed longer bolts for them. OZ use ball seat, and I can’t find this 14*1.25 bolts. That’s why stud conversion with conversion to M14*1.5 thread.
Second reason - don’t like bolts.
Installation very simple, just need to screw in with thread lock.
It will be 255/35, not sure about brand yet.
