I'm fuzzy on NHRA rules, but do you need longer studs to run slicks? It's been a while since I ran anything but drag radials.
Have the fronts?

The thread engagement on all wheel studs to the lug nut,
or lug bolts to wheel hubs, must be equivalent to or greater than the diameter of the stud/bolt.
Length of the stud/bolt does not determine permissibility.(Example: A 7/16-inch stud must be
thoroughly engaged through the threads in the hex portion of the lug a minimum of 7/16-inch.)
with welds you need longer studs because they are thick wheels. with wheels likes bogarts (i believe) or Convo pros, you do not need them.

Thanks, Jerz.
Did these fit over your rear LS brakes, or did you have to 'massage' the brake calipers?

Had to grind a little bit off the edge of caliper
Hey I was just wondering if you still have these, also do they have tubes in them?
Thanks, Mike
