Yes. No, you're correct.

Well, I bought my studs from Mackin Industries whom I believe supply RRE with their studs so the ones I broke might indeed be the same ones RRE sells. I'll give Mike at RRE a call just to confirm.

How did you break your studs? Did you guys strip the splines on the hubs during the install?

I just got off the phone with Racing Brake and the wheel stud listed above is indeed the same size as the OE. They are currently working on an extended stud but it's still a couple months out.
Thanks all for the input.

Wheel Studs Upgrade

RB is now shipping both stock replacement and longer studs (.55" longer than stock). They are an excellent upgrade to stock studs for peace of mind during hard brakings. (Also soon to be released are wheel spacers)

Currently we do not carry any wheel spacers for the EVO, just stock sized and longer studs.

Yes I know but you mentioned in an earlier post that Racing Brake will be releasing a spacer kit soon and I'm asking if they'll be hubcentric for proper Evo fitment or more of a universal style (which kinda suck).

We are taking pre-orders for the spacer/longer stud combination, and have a special running for evolutionm.net members. The special is on a first come, first servie basis.
