Yes they do. You need the ones for F-Bodies. Only catch is the smallest they come in is 2.5in long so and that's a bit longer than the stock ones.
The part number is 100-7708. Let me know if you need some. I sell them.

it never fails, you learn something everyday.
so what is the benifit of these wheel studs...i just bought 2 new studs for 2 dollars
They are a TON stronger than the stock ones. I had broken or stripped 6 stock studs before I got these in. Now I haven't even stripped the threads on one.

I've only broke one stock stud and it was my own dumb fault cross-threading the lug....
I have three sets of wheels/tires for my car, that get changed out 2-3 times a month. I've never had any issues with any studs, ever. If you're breaking/stripping studs, you're doing something wrong. I could understand if you wanted to replace the stockers for something longer, but having to change out studs every time you change a bearing is quite the PITA.
Out of curiousity, what is the stock length of our studs? I put my hub back on and forgot to measure.. Duuur... I need to buy these F-body arp studs..

Just over an inch not including the flat head part. Think it's technically called the knurl or something.

Hypsy, are you sure 100-7708 is the number you got? Becaus I just got the same ones and they wont fit snug in my hub.. Its like the knurl is too small for the holes...

Hmmmmm.... Maybe I once changed the hubs out before and got some from autozone or advanced.. Hmm, that means I would no longer have the stock GM ones... That could be my issue..

Figured out what the problem was.. I had autozone hubs on my car, thats why the F-body studs wouldnt fit... All good now

Do the stock lug nuts still work or do you have to get new lug nuts?

^^Sure do, I have regular cavalier tuner lugs on my Fbody studs.. I also just tried the stock ones on there, they work.. Their open end, which is good with longer wheel studs.

Get open ended lugnuts. If you ever race you have to prove the amount of thread engagement and having your stud coming out the other side ends that discussion quick. LOL.
