Ok, I need new studs, longer ones than stock, I have weld lug nuts that are closed end design, they are the 1.380 shank length ones, I have rodlite wheels, does any one know what studs I will need for my car?? Stock studs are 2 1/8'' long overall, and 1 7/8'' underhead to tip long, and what size knurl also??

You will need open ended shank lug nuts with this swap. I don't know the knurl etc, but I called Maximum Motorsports and they sent me the correct ARP stuff. They are expensive but work great. Do not cheap out on the Moroso studs you have to drill out your existing holes for them to fit etc.

Sorry, I should have done an update but I have already done the stud swap, I got Moroso part #46185 for the front and Moroso part #46180 for the rear and I had to drill none of the holes, they fit great, and I even used the same lug nuts that I had on with the stock studs, which are the 1.380 inch closed end weld brand lug nuts, one of my lugs bottomed out on the stud when all the way torqued down, I just swapped it for anouther lug and that one fit fine, I guess one of my lugs were drilled just a tad bit less. Any how the 1.380 length lugs fit basically perfect with the moroso 46180 and 46185 studs and I did not have to drill my hubs for them to fit.
Oh, and maximum motorsports has the moroso and the arp studs, and they are the same size, that is where I found the studs for my car, I just bought them from summit racing cause they were cheaper there, but anyways size wise the arp and the moroso studs that m&m carries are the same.
