The knurl diameter on the TR's is .500". I've never found any aftermarket 
ones in that diameter but these ones listed in the Pegasus catalog should 
work if you can find the right lug nuts for your wheels.


Wheel Studs - Late Camaro, Firebird, Corvette, Short (5-pk)
Heat-treated 8740 chrome moly studs have a tensile strength of 190,000 psi 
to handle the shock loads and lateral forces in racing applications. Pack of 
5 studs. Lug nuts are sold separately.

  a.. Knurl Diameter: 0.509"
  b.. Knurl Length: 0.315"
  c.. Nose (unthreaded) Length: none
  d.. Shank Length: 2.500"
  e.. Thread Size: M12x1.5
