Actually, you don't NEED the larger studs, just larger lugnuts. They
work fine with the 13/16" lugnuts that generally come with the Minator
wheels. Do NOT try to use them with the 11/16" lugnuts, they tend to
pull through. OTOH, it does make a good reason to convert to the
larger studs.
Not sure why you would need to roll the fenders unless you were going
to use 175 or 185 tires, but then, why else would you want to use
these rims? ;-)
I use a set of these with 185/60R13 Spec Racer Ford tires for
autocrossing my 1972 RWA. A panhard rod or similar means of
restricting lateral motion is recommended in this scenario.
