Reply to "Help finding longer wheel studs..."

The wheels were ordered in the first Kodiak group wheel buy. Kodiak had no information on Panteras, so we were left to our own devices to figure out the backsets for narrow and wide bodied cars. Kodiak promised me several times that they would not make the wheels until there was a review of the backsets submitted by the others in the buy. Unfortunately, they did not do this and my wheels came as I ordered them.
The back wheels are perfect, but the fronts are inset a little too much and rub at full lock. Obviously if I'm at full lock while driving, I'm in trouble! But I thought I'd relieve the rubbing problem and kick them out a bit (for looks) at the same time.
I don't want to buy new tires because these fit the wheels perfectly and they are nearly brand new. I also don't want to change the offset because that would mean buying two new wheels, or disassembling mine and changing the inner and outer rims...all costly solutions.
I also have fairly new Wilwood brakes and rotors, so I don't want to go to Mustang parts.
Since I had to remove and replace the wheel studs when I put on the Wilwood rotors, I know this job can be done quickly.
Thanks, Mooso.
