Can someone let me know about the front wheel stud length on a 350R? Specifically, are they long enough to run say a 5mm spacer without problems? I know 5mm is more than would be comfortable on conventional length studs but my understanding is the 350R has slightly longer studs.

Thank you!

Awesome, thank you guys!

Just for my own edification, the rear studs are not as long, right?

Are the rear lugs conventional length or are they slightly extended as well? In other words, are they capable of also using say a 5mm spacer and still have enough threads?

The rears are slightly shorter than the front. I dont recall that length off the top of my head . I think you’ll be fine with a 5 mm spacer. There is a guy running 12” wheels in the PNW and I think he is on TMO so you could use the search button and there might be some data there for you.

The stock R350 rear should be right around 3-4th, and good for 17mm of spacer.
