All the same size....
Hi Corey
The studs/nuts that holds the two halves of the rims together are 7/8 BSF and very difficult to find unless you are lucky and find some NOS ones like the ones Dirk has brand smacking new. I did obtain a die and tap set form the UK on Ebay at least now we can clean the threads on the rims we have. But from my experience the studs from the 16 and 20 inch rims are all the same. At over $6 a nut and about $8 for the stud (times 8) plus shipping finding a good spare rim for $50 to $75 dollars might be cheaper. At the going price a spare CMP rolling chassis can be a good deal.

Nos...
Hi Bob..Yes that's what i figured..The bolts on Dirks site are a different length and have a different head than the ones i have.Mine have a mushroom head where Dirks are flat like a countersunk screw.
Ive contacted Fastenal here in Langley,they've been great with prices and finding me specialty stuff and my contact is going to get back to me with a price on a custom run of 40 -7/8"-11x3" hex head hi tensile screws (less than 1/4"shank) What i cant remember,because i haven't dug out the wheel i removed the studs from is if there is a chamfer under the head of the stud or if its just a plain hole with the cone nut on the outer side. I asked for the extra length because i want to try and run a wider tire and may need a little more to pull the halves together. If the price isnt out of this world i'll ask about the correct lengths and nuts. I just wish i had 1 undamaged one to take them as an example. maybe i'll have to have an episode of die grinder brain surgery... Will keep you all posted.

omg..
hahah not exactly correct but if the thread is right..
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Right-Hand-W.../dp/B0051ODNXG http://www.tfc.eu.com/fasteners_amp_...ews_bsf_bs1083 ....not sure on the "grade R" also scania uses a 7/8 BSF "wheel bolt" (stud) that may be useable. http://www.grantex.gr/index.php?page...erence&lang=en dug my wheel out of the pile in the shop and there is no chamfer to the back side so thats good news.
