rover wheel stud lengths?

Post by Vinny1979 »

anyone know the thread pitch and length of the rover 220 studs?

is it 12 x 1.5 x 40mm?
also unsure on spline
Im looking at fitting longer studs to give me more wheel options with my 7mm hubcentric spacers

so thinking 60mm honda ones?

Hi vinny,

Can't help you there but wouldn't mind knowing where you got the hubcentric spacers from.

I too would be interested in the stud sizes to increase the wheel size/options.
Cheers

They were a group buy from a guy called Mitus on Rovertech many years ago :slapme

12 x 1.5mm is correct - not sure about the length

Hubcentric spacers with 100 x 4 PCD are available on Ebay. Plenty there. Either spacer plates or bolt-ons which replicate the stud pattern rotated by 45 degrees (more expensive).

Always wondered whether you can get true conversion spacers - so to a more common (??) size, e.g. 5 not 4 studs, etc. I know there are PCD converters...
