Thanks Grigg,
I have located a set of 4 clamp plates. However, my measurements seem to indicate I may need new studs regardless. The mounting flange on the old wheels is 3/16" thick, the 19.5 wheels are 1/4" thick. If the clamp plates are also 1/4", thats an extra 5/16" thickness for the studs to go through on the front and an extra 3/8" on the rear. It doesn't appear the existing studs are long enough to accommodate this.
A potential alternative might be flanged lock nuts as listed by McMaster-Carr (p/n 90949A037). These are 1/2-20 nuts with a 1 1/8" diameter flange.
Any thoughts before I start replacing wheel studs?
Thanks, Steve
