thread for wheel studs
blutopless2 - November 15th, 2005 at 03:08 PM

I have a 57 beetle with the 5 stud pattern drums.
Does anyone know the thread designation for these?
I need to clean up the thread on some studs to fit empi 5 wheels but can't seem to match the thread to anything that i have at work.
Thanks.
