[Mk2] [Turbo] Looking for some longer front wheel studs

Post by Grazzy »

Can someone point me in the direction of where I can get some slightly longer front wheel studs? The wheels i'm fitting take a 8mm spacer up front to clear the brakes and coil overs. there not much left on the thread to bite upto.

I bought mine from epic motor spares in oadby Leicestershire. She looked in a book and found mr2 + 13mm, ordered them in and I picked up in a couple of days.

The splines needed a tickle with a grinded wheel but otherwise perfect.
Sorry don't have a number but if you Google them. Speak to Sam she may be able to post em out to you.

Just rememder to tickle the peaks of the splines with a file or grinding wheel. Just 0.2mm or so.
If you have vernier gauge the measure one of the ones you remove for guidance.
