Are you serious?

You replace your studs with the longer ones in the kit, slide the spacer on then the rim.

Im assuming the bogarts need longer studs in the front, same as the rear, so other than drilling how else can this be acomplished

Almost like that infamous "how to" on removing the antenna.

Have you actually test fit the wheels yet? I needed spacers with the Weld Draglite 15x3.5s, but not with the Bogart 15x4s. And even though it wouldn't be 100% legal at all tracks, I could probably still use the stock length studs, too.

Hey Ron, those are the ones that I use on my drag lites. Its easy to install. My bogarts fitfine with the stock studs and no spacer.

I have not tried it yet. i assumed we needed longer studs. i also dontwant to shear any off and not drive home. Id rather jsut not put them on it that was a possability

no worries about them shearing off? theres enough stud sticking through?

I actually had a spacer shear off a front stud last year. Avoid them if you can, IMO.

If they clear I would just buy the longer aftermarket studs if you want to be safe. I would only use the spacers as a last resort. I always thought the Bogarts had custom spacers built into the wheel.

I drilled mine and man what a PITA . I sent the studs to Polydyn in Houston and had them coated after several boughts with rust on them . Now they look good and are same front and rear.

well i just got done with this task and let me give you some input

http://www.s197forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7879

there you can see what the look is like

i installed 3" studs.....i would go with jegs to order what you need the reason is this. i paid 130 and i got all that was listed above and lug nuts.

they sent me part number moroso 46185 and they were suppose to be a direct fit. THEY WERE NOT! I had to buy a 37/64 drill bit to drill out my holes so we could press in the studs. keep in mind i could give you all the sorted details on what i would have done dif if you want.
