Wheel studs for Weld Pro Stars?

I pulled my rotors off today to repack the bearings and I saw that two studs have been replaced on the pass. side. Although I never had a problem I think it is a good time to replace all the factory studs with longer ARP ones.

Should I use 1/2" or 12mm?
Press in or screw in?
What length?
Open or closed lug nut?

The rear is already done with Moser 3" long 5/8" studs.

Could someone point me in the right direction?

Well... I ordered from Summit Racing today. I hope I got the right ones. I ordered ARP-100-7708. I think they are one inch longer than the factory ones.

Those are right; 2.5" long.

GM 22551491 is 2.9x" long but I don't know if that's thread length or total (there's a bit at the end that's unthreaded)

Re: Wheel studs for Weld Pro Stars?

jmd, you told me to buy .769" long shank the other day. I havn't tried them yet, since im not near my car, but I hope they fit.

edit.. yeah.. it said studs. Didn't catch that. I thought it said lug nuts. Well it did but thats not what he was talkin about.

Sorry bout that

Re: Wheel studs for Weld Pro Stars?

Do the center caps for your wheels have a blue center that says weld racing?

I can't remember the color for sure, but they are genuine Weld wheels.
