Hello,
I am building a 90 YJ and have just installed a 95'Chevy LT1. I also purchased used American Racing wheels with 36" tires. My stock lugs are too short. They are .5" lug(.625) stock with a 38 spline count.  They are about 1.5" long. I need them to be .25" to .50" longer than stock.  Has any one had an issue like this? Do you know where I can purchase longer bolts? It does not matter to me if the thread is standard or metric.
Thanks,
Ben Smith

Dorman Products is a manufacturer of automotive fasteners. Their web site has listings of their products. NAPA sells Dorman products. Look up the spec for your stock "wheel stud". Dorman part# 610-109 (Front) and 610-364 (Rear). See if you can find one in their listing that is a little longer with the same knurl diameter. The knurl diameter is the key.

Click Here for the Dorman spec page to get you started.

You can also drill out the hole if you find something that will work length wise but with a larger knurl. Make sure you find out the correct drill size for a good press fit.
