Is it generally the case that the mounting hole part of an alloy wheel is thicker than on a steel rim? ie do you get more stud protruding through on a steely?
thanks in advance!

In short - yes.
There are different wheel studs to compensate for this.

Thanks Martin! I guess it follows that a Jimny with alloys on from the factory will have longer studs then.
Cheers
Mick

I bought a set of High Tensile studs from my local dealer for about £2 each. I told the dealer they were for larger offset alloy wheels and they were fine.
Dont be tempted to go for cheaper ones for trailers .. you donot want to sheer a wheel stud half way up a green lane !!!..
