The new Toyota GR Corolla has a problem. The stock wheel studs are too short when running aftermarket wheels with a conical seat.
there’s some debate on “proper lug engagement”, but there is a minimum. My argument is for full diameter of the bolt is proper engagement. For an m12x1.5 bolt that’s 8 full turns. Minimum for an m12x1.5 bolt is 6.5 turns which is about 80% of the bolt diameter.
Many racing series require the wheel stud to stick out of the lug nut. This guarantees full engagement and is easily checked in tech.
Alright down to the details.
Stock 2023 Front has 27.7mm of threads and is 41.2mm seated length
Stock 2024 Front has 27.5mm of threads and is 40.9mm seated length (1/4 turn less than 2023!!)
H&R 35mm (comes with their 5mm spacer kit) has 36mm of threads and is 47.2mm seated length
Stock Rear has 35.7mm of threads and is 48.85mm seated length
H&R 40mm (comes with their 10mm spacer kit) has 40.6mm of threads and is 51.9mm seated length
H&R 50mm (1255044) has 50mm of threads and a 61mm seated length
ARP 100-7715 has 54mm of threads and is 66mm seated length
ARP 100-7717 (Evo w/ Bull Nose) has 52.5mm of of threads is 67mm seated length (.565in knurl, which is .005in larger than ARP 100-7715. Once installing this stud its not recommended to go back to stock size)
Ichiba 2.6" has 50mm of threads and is 60mm seated length
Seated length is the important number since the lower threads cannot be used.
Running the H&R 35mm front and 40mm rear will give you enough engagement. This also means you could move your rear studs to the front and run a 40mm rear stud.
More to come as we add more options to the website and do more testing.
