I needed extended studs and i asked him if the part number was correct and he said yes. I ordered the studs and finally got to putting them on and the hole on the hub is way to big.
Here is proof of me asking him

Here is the stud and hub. the hole is way bigger than the factory s13 240sx hub

Why would you use those?
They're not for Nissans AT ALL (Chevrolet). They're not the right thread pitch either 12x1.5 Nissan is 12x1.25.
Like, why did you even have them in your possession?

Drautomotive has NEVER done me wrong. I've used his conversion hubs for over 4 years any time I had a problem, he took care of me.
I'm only leaving this thread up so I can reply and show how incorrect you are.

Just some quick info off another site. Yes the thread pitch is different but new lug nuts solve that.

My teammate has extended studs (probably Nismo) that use 12x1.25.
I know that 1.5 lugs are way more common (what with honda's using that and stuff)

He apologized and refunded me the cost of the studs, thank you very much for that . I ended up installing the s14 extended studs on them and they fit but the hub material is pretty soft and the lugs did not secure well on them, it had a slight wobble so I had to tack weld them on the back

Good luck getting one of those studs out if it ever breaks or the threads strip

Just replace the entire hub at that point.

Or just grind the tack welds off.
