Does anyone know of a longer version of a sierra wheel stud? (approximately 10-12mm longer)
Perhaps eve the actual thread type so i can track them from the local bolt place?

Hmm if only i knew earlier about them liberty studs when i did my conversion. With the ford ones, i had to slightly drill out the holes, but it worked out fine anyway.

I used nissan skyline wheel studs on my rear with disk brake conversion. Basically removed the studs from the same car I took the calipers off. Cost me nothing either

I've heard zuk front wheel studs are longer than the rears, and can be used for rear disks.
I used Subaru Legacy studs for my rear disks. They need a 14mm hole. Not sure what size the zuk hole is, as I made new disk mounting plates.
The Legacy ones also have a parallel smooth shank for the disk to locate on, so its not locating on thread.

Its what I did.

I used fronts on the rear for my disc conversion. Only just right, could do with a tad longer.
But they have never come off.
