Hi,
Would anyone know if the genuine wheel studs for the s brakes have mowog on the end of them?
I’ve got a set of wheel studs from the drum setup and they have mowog but the ends are domed and run really close to the calliper on the S setup.
The repro wheel studs I have on my discs are so soft all the splines are worn and the studs start to slip.
Thanks Dave

Interesting. There seems to be TWO types. A FLAT end and a slightly ROUNDED end. The flat ends have got MOWOG on them but not the slightly rounded ended ones

Flat head studs are ideal but you should still have clearance with rounded head and S callipers.
Only clearance Issue I've experienced was rounded head studs used with aftermarket alloy callipers.
