Ok im having trouble trying to find the longer 54mm wheel studs that i need for the beretta brake upgrade what year gm vehicles had the longer wheel studs so i can finish up the front part of the upgrade. Would it be recommended to reuse the original 42mm wheel studs that came on the factory hub ?????
When I got them a while back Autozone and NAPA had some issues tracking them down. O'Reilly has them listed on their webpage and can get them, but they're marked "limited availability" so you may have some issues getting them all at once.
Summit Racing has them listed and available, and you can get 20 for right around $30, so about a buck fifty each give or take.
Yea they are pretty tough to get so far advance can get them for 26.00 bucks, autozone cant even get them so it seems like im gonna have to get them from advance and wait for them to be shipped :-(
Autozone has them under part #610-323.1 and my local store keeps 3 in stock. Oreilys also stocks them and is cheaper. The .1 designation is for an individual wheel stud vs. a box of 10.
They are the stock front wheel studs for the 2006-2008 H3, so have them look up that application if needed.
Ebay, Summit, Jegs... all sell them by the box of 10... only issue is Dorman can't count. I have purchased about 8 boxes from various places and 5 of the boxes only had 9 in them.
If you are using an aftermarket set of hubs, there is a chance they have the larger wheel stud hole. If that's the case, this thread lists the part # for them. //www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum2/HTML/126744.html
Ok here is a update i got the studs finally autozone had them under a h3 hummer sweet deal now that i got the studs in and the hub bolted up to the spindle slide the rotor over lined up in the stud an the rotor doesnt sit inside the hub who knows the measurements needed to make them sit in the new beretta brake rotor so my uncle can have them turned down ?????

Have you already had the stock rotors turned down? If so, then whoever turned them down didn't make them small enough to fit inside the Grand Am rotors.
In any case, just measure the diameter inside the Grand Am rotor (where the turned down hub needs to fit in), and turn down the hub slightly smaller than that.

Punctuation is our friend. It makes it soooo much easier to read your posts so we can understand and answer your questions........
No the only work i did to the hubs was cut the rotor off and install the longer studs. I thought all i had to do is cut the rotor off an the ga brake would slide over it but i guess i was wrong.
Yea im gonna have to take everything apart tomorrow and drop them off to the machine shop my uncle isnt gonna be able to do it at his shop hope it wont be to much money since i the hard part is done already
