I was wondering if anyone knows or has installed extended wheel studs on an 5.5 maxima.
Two wheel studs on my left front tire are missing and i have 1 wheel stud on my right tire that broke off. So yea i was thinking about getting extended wheel studs all around since i will be getting spacer sometime in the future.

Can anyone help me out??

 

So you're driving around with 1 wheel being held on by 3 lugs and another by only 4? You're also going to install spacers on the front, but make no mention of doing the rears?

Ok, now that that's out of my system...

There are many threads about people installing spacers along with longer studs to compensate for the spacer thickness. Honestly, if you're going to put spacers on the front, the biggest you would go would be 5mm depending on your wheel offset. You would really only need longer studs if installing larger sized spacers in the rear.

We need more details.

 

Okay sorry about that I will be installing spacers in the rear too. I plan in running an 245/40/r18 set-up on my car. I haven't driving my car that much since one wheel is only on by three lug nuts.
Also since i'm goin to install new studs and said the hell with it and install new ones all around. One thing i have been thinking about, Will i have to change wheel bearings too??

Also i just need to find the website that offers them for our car. I mean i was thinking about getting the nismo ones but its says it won't fit our car.

 

These are the spacers that I purchased for my Max.

to options for their good prices and quick shipping

If i were you, I would just replace the front three studs with OEM (get them at autozone), because with the 5mm spacers up front, you're not going to need longer ones. Then buy the 20mm rear spacers, and they already come with extended studs.

 

I have 15mm spacers for sale if interested. Used for a few weeks. Just gotta remove the studs still.

PM me

 

the 5mm eibach spacers i have came with studs, altho they dont look much longer, but i do plan on useing them.

ive had several different spacers in the rear. i have much longer studs than needed. (the really long nismo studs, only thing nismo i have)but id rather have too much than not enough. esp on the fronts

 

For anybody using ext length studs in snow regions with acorn style lug nuts ...

I've got extra little rubber covers for the end of the lug studs to help keep em from rusting. PM me if anybody needs.

 

I'm guessing you are using open lugnuts...

 

I have extended studs all around and have some left over. I can get you my leftovers if you are interested. I'm not sure how may I have, but I think I have enough for an entire car, (20).

I can give anyone a deal on them since they are just sitting in my toolbox. PM me if you are interested.

They are 62mm, 20 mm longer than standard, they have the Nissan standard 12mm thread.
