    you can get wheel studs in whatever length you need.

    You need to get the axles out, but then you can change em out yourself with a big hammer, or if you have a press, even better

    your wheel nuts need 9 threads of engagement and 90 to 100 Ft/Lbs torque.

    The standard studs are usually a little short you can knock them out with a hammer without removing the axle and pull the new ones in with an inverted wheel nut, a couple large washers and an impact gun.

    You have a G10 van right?
    Use NAPA wheel stud 641-1267 they are the same splined fit in the axle and about 3/8" longer
