Wow! Thank you for clearing that up. That could have been ugly.

If you go back and edit your post, then I'll edit mine so it has me agreeing with you that you have the right numbers.

Have couple questions VoodooStang... fixing to swap the rear brakes on my 17 Base GT to the gt350r brakes.

What tool is this in the first picture?

The four (4) pack of bolts (part# W714333S439) can you clarify where they go and what they are used for. Tring to understand all the parts and what I will need for the swap.

Bump does ARP have rear studs closer to the stock length 2 1/4" My rear ones keep snapping?

Woah! I’m dying to know how you’re snapping wheel studs off (apparently repeatedly) with the torque these things will already take.

I have no idea I swap wheels pretty often, maybe it is my impact gun? I suspect it is a combination of that and the hub centric rings not seating perfectly. Or maybe my lugs I dunno.

You're snapping stock studs? Or ARP studs? How're you using the impact? Only to remove? Or tightening as well?

Why change the studs to these arp ones? I noticed they’re longer, but do they provide any benefits over stock studs? Also what is the reasoning behind the rounded/domed threadless tip?

They are harder metal I actually have some but I dont want massively long studs.

When you were using the impact gun to put the lug nut on were you putting it down tight with the gun on just snugging it and then using a torque wrench to put them at 135lb??
