I need to get a set of longer wheel studs for a 1975 kombi. I know the thread is 14 x 1.5mm. I see that a company called Nice Products has 14 x 1.5 long 73mm studs. They come with two different knurled section diameters. 15.7mm and 16.25mm.

Does anyone know what the knurl diameter is for a late Bay bus original stud?

Have you fitted longer studs and what knurl diameter did you use?

Will the holes have to be drilled out? Obviously if the original and after market sizes are different
