you can get 3" Moroso studs at your local speed shop for like $12 a pack. if you get Moroso studs you needthe ones with .615 knurl and 1/2" thread. youll have to open the stud holes up slightly with a 39/64"drill bit, or carefully with a die grinder.

some places do sell studs that are direct fit but they are real expensive.

The knurl is the same, but you may have to drill out the front hubs. .615 are a direct replacement for the rear.

would 3 inch studs make it so that the center caps on steet rims wont fit?

You'll also have to get a set of open ended, acorn lug nuts for your "street" wheels.

The rears are .615, the fronts I believe are .585 I ordered the fronts from Baer who sells ARP studs with the correct knurl size so no drilling is necessary(not that it's a big deal to drill). They're expensive ~$7/stud, but they are great quality.

for the front get the studs from baer brakes. $7.10 each and well worth every penny if it means not drilling out the hubs.

Give them a call and order them up, they also sell really nice billet aluminum spacers for $40 pair.
