Longer wheel studs?

So, I'm looking to put longer wheel studs on my 4th gen. I've done some searching but haven't been able to find a whole lot about the subject. Anyone know which of the Nismo longer wheel studs I need to order that will fit?

http://www.courtesyparts.com/nismo/bolts/index.html

I'll keep searching to see if I can find anything. Any and all help would be appreciated.

try calling courtesy?

The lower units (;ower part of the page) fit 02-04 Altima. That may work, but the Altima has a different rear suspension, BUT, it states it will fit all Nissans w/solid rear axle, which we have.

I might be stating the obvious, but trying to help put it in perspective at the same time.

I used H&R extended studs when I added my spacers since they were provided w/ the kit.

Perhaps try the suspension forum for more input. Or, PM Matt93SE or Jeff92se.

yea I asked around a little bit and think I know which ones will fit. I think part numbers have changed somewhat recently because the part number I got is different from what is listed. I'll be purchasing some here soon and if they are right then I'll definitely post up for everyone to know.

Last time I tried to install Nismo studs, it was a failure. They don't fit as tight as OEM studs on the hub. That's a big problem because you won't be able to mount your wheels back on.

I talked to 1FSTMAX and he said he had them on the rear and that Larrio had them all the way around on his car. Can't hurt to give it a shot.

Go ahead. Maybe you'll have better luck. Maybe Nismo made their studs little thicker for a tighter fit.

Don't laugh but my wheels look like poop. I'm going to pull them apart and have them refinished real soon.

Anyways, I got the 60mm studs and as you can see in the pics they are pretty much even with the end of my open end lug nuts.

Here is the part number:
40222-RSO45
