I need press in wheel studs 12mmx1.5, 1.5" long. .580 knurl.

I've tried locally and online with no luck everything is too long and I'd prefer not to cut the studs. I would be happier if I could find one even shorter about 1.25" long from the bottom of the "head".

Anyone got an idea where to find these? Thanks

DORMAN makes every conceivable bolt etc! I buy/order from my local Eugene Fastener.

Couldn't find the size from Dorman. I either missed it or they don't have a shorty 12mm in .580

Try John at toplineparts.com. When I switched to 5x130 he machined the rotors and installed press in studs.

I know john personally. He doesn't have anything that would work.
