Info on longer wheel studs please
 

Can anyone please provide a link or info to a supplier of Wheel studs for Amazon /Pvs that are longer than normal . My minilites wont clear the calipers on my Pv ,they are fine on my Amazon . I want to run with spacers to clear the Calipers but need longer wheel studs to give me enough thread for safety .
Any info gratefully received . Thank you

You can get spacers that use the original studs to locate, and have built in studs to give extra width.

I've spoken with Minilite about this in the past as my Minilites touch my calipers but l bought the Minilites from an Amazon owner.
Minilite claim no Minilite they supply for Amazons should have spacers or require them.
Then on speaking to Simon at Brookhouse he said there was a design change in Caliper production or words to that effect which meant that in some cases the caliper fouled the wheel which goes along with the fact l had service exchange calipers from Brookhouse.
The spacers l fitted were 5mm followed by chrome nuts, this may create a hornets nest of comments but this is just my experience so hope it helps not confuses the matter.

Thank you . I had heard of these but I'm not sure they are as strong as the original set up so I wanted to try to source some longer ones . Ive no idea what the original size /splines are even . Have to get my glasses on and do some investigation !

Thank you for your thoughts ,i just felt once id fitted the spacer that there wasnt enough thread to be sure of the wheels not coming loose . Are you the chap i sold some seats to a few years back ?

How bad is the interference? If it is just one corner of the caliper you may be able to just grind a small amount off to give the required clearance. Something similar can happen with 240's when using 14" alloys and a couple of passes with the grinder can be enough to cure the problem.
Perhaps talk to Rob at Amazon Cars?

KG Trimning sell them in Sweden. I have fitted them on my car. Not found any others available due to them having such a large shank.

Hello there , a simple answer to longer wheel studs is ask at a motor sport supplier ( i.e. Demontweeks ) if you know your thread size

Hope it helps

Dependant on the thickness though. The existing studs are approx 25mm from the hub/drum, if your spacer is less than this you will need to cut them or fit thru bolt spacers with longer studs
Try Mr Tee https://www.mistertee.co.uk/products/wheel-studs/
Remember anything over 20mm and you are liable to hit the leading edge of the front wheel arch when on full lock

Also only use hub-centric spacers

I do have a set of these longer studs left over from a project many years ago they in my draw still at workshop

And have found a place that can do them using dimensions then pumped into a cad design to be re made on order

Kind regards
