- 12mm x 1.50 Thread Size
- Pack of 4
Used these on new German & Italian brake drums for a 1973 VW Thing; replacing crappy/dangerous spacers/adapters & original 1955 Ford Thunderbird wire wheels the previous owner had installed. They fit/worked, and still work well although I did use a die to add a few more threads to the rear studs to take advantage of the Thing specific rear drums which have a very thick mounting face; and used red LokTite rear & blue front, although not called for/required. These were used with VW aftermarket steel rims and hubcaps which require the "ball seat" nuts NOT the 60 degree taper. (I add this as a tip, as I have seen many incorrect usages).

Installed on an early watercooled Volkswagen. This is a very well made product, threads are well formed and clean. Installs using an odd-sized allen wrench (5.5mm) and use blue Locktite to prevent them from backing out of the wheel hub.Sadly, they are not as "long" as I would have hoped (not a product fault, but for anyone considering the same VW modification). I had intended on using them with 8-10mm wheel spacers behind my OE 14" Aluminum wheels. Installed and lugged using Honda OEM open ended lugs, there is only enough thread for approx a 5-6mm wheel spacer. Anyone intending on using a wheel spacer above 5-6mm, I would recommend going with the 77737XL wheel studs, they are 1/2" longer.
