Lug STUD size
Anybody know off hand what size the studs are on our trucks? I got a set of second hand wheels and tires that use extra long lug nuts and they don't fit the studs on my truck. The lug nuts say 14x1.5, I'm guessing the truck has some other size?

Can anyone explain to me why in the world the lug studs on the wheels on these trucks are sooooo llooooooonnnnngg? The studs in the back on my truck are like 2.5" long AFTER the wheel is mounted. Any reason I shouldn't use the cutoff tool to shorten them up to a more reasonable length? I ordered some lug nuts for my new (to me) wheels today but I'd like to shorten up the studs while I am at it, if possible.
