Wheel studs/Bolts

[knore]

I had an RACQ test done last week on the car i now own, the only real fault they could find was the the fron drivers side wheel.. 2 of the stud bolds had snapped their thread or something similar to that, i went to Whynnum Manly Nissan yesterday and sat there with the guy in service department while he talked to parts on the phone and ordered me 4 studs and 4 bolts (there only $8 for stud and $2 for bolds or other way round maybe, so i got 2 extra)

he gave the parts department my VIN number, model and type etc

Only question i have, is i have 17s or 18s nismo/rays mags and want to know if they come with special bolts/studs or not

When you buy 18" nismo mags for example, can u just take stock rim off and put aftermarket straight on the studs there and use the bolts from stock?

just curious

You can put mags on the standard studs no problems at all. New set of studs is a good idea.

Bolts might be chrome, might not... You can get locking nuts too...

thanks, i brought 4 new studs from Whynnum Manly nissan today

bolts he said will be impossible to get unless i give him one as a sample,

im assuming the bolts came with my wheels,

im getting 100k service done at auto tech soon so ill see what they can do

1 of the bolts just wont come off .. tried pliers and everything

nissan said probably have to hoist it up, undo the other bolts and try to work the other one off, then put in new studs and bolts

- dont think they are chrome, they are black and have 125 written on the side

Thanks for the info mate

well went to nissan again, they couldnt get one of the nuts off, thread has broken off and is just spinning

only tried some snap on tools and pliers though,

also they couldnt get the nuts that i needed without giving them a sample, which sucks

ill just get Gavin woods auto tech to fix it when i get service done

i attached pic of the studs though

cheap as chips these babies

I had a stuff up stud before, and couldn't get the nut off, so I just snaped it off and put a new stud in

and yeah they're cheap as

for the nuts, any wheels shop can get you those

got my car booked in for service on thurs.. spose i can get them to do it
