How long are stock wheel studs? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Anyone know how long the stock front wheel studs stick out from the wheel hub?
Going to order some spacers, and since my wheels dont have holes in the back they need to be at least as thick as the length of the stud to not go against the rim..

Stock wheel studs can accept a 3mm slip spacer safely. Some guys run up to a 5mm slip spacer. You will need longer/aftermarket studs to go with a bigger spacer.

Im sorry but you didnt understand his question at all...

To OP, I dont have the exact measurements but with a 25mm spacer (the ones that bolt unto the hub) I can use my wheels that dont have space in the back either. So 25mm at the very least.

The series.blue wheels had that issue with bolt-on spacers. I believe you'll need a 20mm, but I'm not 100% sure.

OP - if i were you I'd take the 10 mins to jack the car up, pull the front wheel and measure the studs to be sure.

25mm for sure. the nut sits flush when tourque down on stock studs and fits wheels with no back pad holes.

Hey guys I'm having a similar problem as well, I went with the project kics 11mm bolt on spacers but with the set of wheels I got they don't have an indentation for the stock studs to stay in, I was thinking of getting a 10mm slip on spacer but I wasn't sure what length to get for extended studs without having to worry about the wheel not sitting flush to the hub. I appreciate any help I could get, Thank you!
