5/8" Wheels Studs shank length?

Joe Grippo · 04-15-2010, 12:29 PM

I am replacing my rear Weld Draglites with a set of first generation ET Drag Wheels from Mickey Thompson. I am using 5/8 screw in wheel studs. I want to replace the studs and was wondering what shank length or overall stud length will be right for the new wheels. I do not have the wheels yet to measure the thickness. Anyone have a similar set up? Thanks.

Joe, if I recall they are .490-.550 shank length. I would call M/T to make sure!

They are the shorter shank type wheel, like an Alumastar or a Bogart.
