I am almost done with the 250 restoration. After installing the new 250 rims I noticed that the studs were a little short. The car must have had wire wheels earlier in it's life. So I ordered new studs and they just spin in the hub. old dimension is 0.515 in diameter. the new one is 0.499 . I went to napa auto parts and they have nothing... Did I get a bad batch from the supplier or ????? I really wanted to take the 250 out for it's first drive tomorrow.
