Wheel Stud Hole Diameter?
 
Anyone know what the nominal hole diameter is supposed to be for the wheel stud holes? I am interested in the 69 SS wheels, but I would assume they would be the same for any factory wheels with 7/16" diameter studs. TIA.

Yes, many are "wallowed" out though, If I am not mistaken Rick Nelson has tapered inserts for them which are not visible when installed.

You may have misunderstood my request....I am trying to find out what the size of the stud HOLES in the wheels are. I know the OEM wheel studs are 7/16&quot; in diameter, and obviously the holes in the wheels would need to be somewhat larger than 7/16&quot;....I just need to know how much larger.

I measured this one that looks to have hardly any wear and a good estimate looks to be .620 from the back sede
