Stud Conversion with Project Kics Lugs

Hyper psi-atic · 08-24-2010, 02:28 PM

Does anyone know the correct size stud to get for a Stud Conversion if using the Project Kics R40 40mm Open Ended Lugs? Basically I dont want the end of the stud poking out beyond the wheel too much and I will be running 5mm spacers up front and none in the rear as I will have et25 offsets back there. Also these will be on Advan RS-D's.

There are a few stud choices like the Macht Snell 75mm which look great in powdercoated black but are like $100 more than another option which are not and come in 50mm length.

Anyone have experience with others or have suggestions...vendors?

I have 90mm Turner studs.. they stick out rather far.. :-/

75mm should work pretty good.. not sure about 50mm..

as for the project kics lugs you need M12x1.50

I would suggest doing the same with the 75mm studs as I also have the Turner 90mm studs with Project Kics R40 Neochrome.

This also depends if you're planning on running a spacer on top of the studs too... If you're running anything under a 12mm spacer on the Macht Schnell studs, you'll be ok, but if it's anything bigger, than I would go with Turner's 90mm kit just so you have that extra clearance.
