You ordered Dorman 610-0159.10 which are 11/16-16 RH x 3-1/4" long studs (not 5/8"), is that what you need and are they long enough for your new wheels?

What size and how long are your existing studs?

What size lug holes do your new wheels have?

78buckshot,you have stud piloted Budd wheels with beveled holes and 2 nuts holding the rear wheels on. Tronman has hub piloted Motor wheels with straight cut holes and one flanged lug nut holding his rear wheels on, two completely different setups.
