screw in wheel studs NEED HELP!!!!!!!

Ok,
here is the problem!!

I have a Moser 9inch with the 35sl axes. They are set up with 5/8 screw in wheel studs. I want to run my ss wheels....Which the holes are too small for the 5/8studs.
Does anyone make a wheel stud that goes from 5/8 and tapers down to the stock size/ which is M12 x 1.50 x3.25long

I check with Moser and they said no.... HELP!
i goggled the **** out of it!!

I'm sure i'm not the only one with this problem!!

Re: screw in wheel studs NEED HELP!!!!!!!

I don't think many people have opted for 5/8" studs. Most people just use 1/2" studs. I've seen a 1,350HP/3500# 4th Gen run a 8.5x with a 9-inch and 1/2" studs.

I can't imagine it costing that much to have them machined, but yeah, you'd never be able to sell them
