i need some longer studs. i think the 3 inch ones would not clear the center caps? will these 2 2/2? clear? is there a cheaper place to get them as well? 140 bucks in studs isnt really what i was expecting to pay but if so then so be it. need these to clear under the 99 GT pony wheel's center caps i have.

why your bull****ting, i was actually looking at that same part at steeda today. (damn i have a great job)

How much is it lacking thus far? I think a 3" would be good for just about any ford wheel.

Buy the 3" and cut them down as needed.

2.5 should clear no problem, i had 3 inch studs with 95-95 pony wheels and they need to be drilled out but just barely.

and you are crazy to buy them from steeda, thats rediculous, go on summit find the size you need and save yourself alot of money and have them in 3 days max. Steeda takes a while to ship their stuff out.

I have 3" studs on the back and the centercaps for my pony wheels just barely go on. I have to fiddle with them every time until they actually fit ok. I'm not sure what the 99 pony wheels are like, but I would go with the 2.5" or cut the 3" like droptop said.
