Hi all. I am wanting to order combat wheels with 395’s for my M813a1. I currently have 11.00-20’s on budd wheels. Do I use same mounting hardware? need longer studs?

You need lug nuts like that are on the front and ditch the thimbles and outer nuts on the rear. They are 3/4-16 lug nuts. You need 20 right and 20 left.

I thought it was only the hemmtt wheels that required longer studs? Or am I wrong?
Idk. I’ve read so many different things on it lately. I’ve read use all the same hardware, use longer studs up front, use the budd lugs on front to gain width.

HEMTT wheels require longer studs on M54 m809 series trucks cause they have shorter studs unless you use the recessed type lug nut. M939 Studs are longer. Normal combat wheels you are fine. HEMTT wheels are alot thicker than standard combat wheels whether it be for a 5 ton or LMTV type combat wheel
