1/2 or 5/8 rear wheel studs
 
i currently have 1/2 wheel studs on strange 35 spline axles. i really dont want to buy new axles to go to the larger studs if i dont need to. im i ok whit what i have. 1000 hp, glide, 2650 weight on car 15-33 slicks. thanks

With that kind of horsepower I*d get the biggest stud I could get. But you don*t need new axles.

in this case i would go bigger, it,s better to have it, and not need it, than need it, and not have it, with that kind of hp, i would want it.!!!

???--DO YOU HAVE TO DRILL OUT YOUR ALUMINUM RIMS BIGGER OR IS THE LUG NUT SHANK JUST THINNER???

lug nut,s for 5/8 will not have a shank.
