Installed some hub centric wheel spacers on rear that had their own studs. Installed 3/8" spacers on front. Although lug nuts tightened on good, I just don't trust that there are enough turns to be completely safe.

Gonna get some longer studs. Better to be safe than sorry. Anyone know off hand what size, length, and thread pitch my 03 stock studs are?

3/8" spacer + 3/8" longer wheel stud = Safe as factory?

As long as you have 6+ full turns and you'll be fine.

I have installed new lugs out back to address the 1/2" spacers I run. I actually have 1" of thread for each lug and is certainly overkill. Personally, if I was to add a 3/8" spacer, I would add 3/8" of thread to each lug. This is just too important to not have all the security you can.


***THIS*** thread says 1 turn for each stud diameter. So if studs are 1/2" diameter, one should have 1/2" depth of theads. I would have to measure, but probably about 8~9 turns.

***TIRE RACK*** recommends 8 turns in this case

These are somewhat subjective numbers, but I ALWAYS error on the side of caution with stuff as important as this.

1/2"-20 2" length.
Length kind of depends on brand... I've seen some advertised at 1-31/32" also, but that is close enough to 2" in this regards.

I broke a stud with a 3/8" spacer and extended lug nuts. I ended up going with Moroso 3" studs with Gorilla open-ended lug nuts. I believe the knurl was .625.
