Wheel Stud Hole Diameter?

[Bill Pritchard]

Anyone know what the nominal hole diameter is supposed to be for the wheel stud holes? I am interested in the 69 SS wheels, but I would assume they would be the same for any factory wheels with 7/16" diameter studs. TIA.

Yes, many are "wallowed" out though, If I am not mistaken Rick Nelson has tapered inserts for them which are not visible when installed.

7/16"....but if put the car on the strip for good fun ...use 1/2"

You may have misunderstood my request....I am trying to find out what the size of the stud HOLES in the wheels are. I know the OEM wheel studs are 7/16&quot; in diameter, and obviously the holes in the wheels would need to be somewhat larger than 7/16&quot;....I just need to know how much larger.

I measured this one that looks to have hardly any wear and a good estimate looks to be .620 from the back sede
