vz rims on vn HELP (studs)

[steveabbott]

hey guys, once again simple problems cant b easily fixed... how hard it must b to compare a set of studs to another, even when specifically asked!!!

has ne1 put the rims off a vz thunder ute onto a vn, i gotta stock as stock vn exec, slowly getn there... the wheel studs i was told to be suffice were about an inch too short. i have ordered the studs from the vz, front and rear left and right, but im unsure if they will fit my rotors etc,
has ne1 else done this? much appreciated is anyhelp
much love

VZ rims should be no different mate...

Are they DEFINITELY off a VZ thunder?

[hispeedvp]

what brand of wheel studs have you been given? in the "Nice" brand the part numbers you need for the long studs is

NS3430 STUD/NUT PACK-M12-1.50 X 53.0M

Factory replacement is

NS343 STUD/NUT PACK-M12-1.50 X 38.5M

this part number is a stud and nut package but if you drop the the N of both part numbers you get just the stud by itself.

hope this helps

hey vn2nv yer they r definately off a thunder, picked them up from holden myself yesterday, reciepts and all...
hispeedvp, i'm pretty sure its those parts that i ordered, i ordered only the studs, but most suppliers only stock 3 or 4, so i have ordered them from holden and a few distributors as well whoever gets in first gets the sale haha

just so that u no holden has released a whole heap of their rims for general consumption now, i picked up 18x8 thunder rims 4 a price probably the same as 18s from a tyre shop so im pretty stoked and they will look super sexy on the vn too
cheers 4 ur help lads would luv to hear from some1 who has done similar

I get the Holden Dealer Parts news and is suprising exactly what they do stock. They still sell internationals and VT/VX SS rims as well.
