I feel like I should already know this, but I'm drawing a blank... I ordered Baer brakes (track front, sport rear) and Boyd Coddington Smootie wheels. I need to order the correct lug nuts for the wheels, but can't remember what the correct size is. I would go out and measure the car except it is in storage about an hour away and I didn't find anything in my searches. I think they are 7/16"-20...

Unless you have replaced them with Moroso product number 46190 being 1/2" - 20 x 3" with 0.685 base dia. longer grade eight cadinium plated studs yes.

Unless you have replaced them with Moroso 1/2" longer studs yes.
I believe Lg. Dave met 1/2" diameter, whereas the thread would be 1/2-20 UNF.

Sorry; I see were a reference to only a 1/2 longer could have been misinterpreted as a half inch longer 7/16th inch diameter by 20 fine thread wheel stud. My bad. I edited original to reduce confusion.

Thanks for the quick responses! I've read in some other posts that some have had to replace the studs in the rear axles with longer ones for the Baer Sport system to work correctly. I'll do a search and see if I can find the old thread. In the mean time, can anyone confirm this as true?
