I have Draglites now, what wheel studs did everyone go with?
I got a great deal on some Weld Draglites. I am wondering what wheel studs some of you went with? Did you go with the screw in wheel studs or press-on? I've seen a few guys on here with Draglites but I forgot their names. The rears are 16" inches.
Thanks!-Josh

Pro-Stars are the same. I run 3" long, 1/2"-20 screw ins in my Strange axles. Fronts need at least 2.5" to meet NHRA thread engagement rule. Those are still 12mm press-in, and I run a 5/16" spacer. Basically, the lugs must engage at least 1/2" of stud threads in the hex portion of the lug. Lugs must be open end.

I take it that screw ins will not work for stock axles?

Correct. With stock axles you have to use press-in studs with the correct spline diameter (0.509").
Here's a post I did on another site for fitting the Weld Pro-Stars and Draglites:
