wheel lug sizing question
Hello,
Im going to be buying some american wheels soon as drift spares, and I have a question
I know 5x4 1/2" will fit the lexus because Ive seen it done before,
but what is the right stud size (american) for the 12mm lexus studs?
I figure 1/2" (american stud size) = 12.7mm
Will that fit well?
thanks
scott
ps, ive seen a guy or two who has mustang wheels which are 1/2" stud size so I think that should work well

1/2= 12.7mm? Then if you were replacing studs to 1/2, then are getting new hub as well?? Isn't the hub made for 12mm? Then if you wanted to install something larger, either you have to make holes on the hub to b larger, or get a new one.
Just use correct angle lug nut to wheel n hub centric ring if you can.

Im actually just talking about putting on a wheel that has 1/2" holes. I wont be changing anything about my hub or studs.
thanks
