Eric 05-13-2002, 08:31 AM I am looking for some Dorman wheel studs (610-215) and the price of them seems to vary from $1.60 - $2.75 ea. Where is the cheapest place to buy these? ZUK 05-13-2002, 09:56 AM have you tried yet at autozone/checkers/pepboys? They shoyuld be 99 cents. payton 05-13-2002, 10:03 AM cheap isnt always a good thing! espcally when talkin bout what holds ur tire and rim on .... trust me runnin down the highway at 75 and a tire coming off isnt fun! thank god it was a company truck,.

No kidding man, dont be a cheap ass its only a $1.15 difference Eric 05-13-2002, 02:08 PM I am not looking for cheap ass fastners, I am looking for the cheapest price on DORMAN wheel studs. Why pay more when you don't have too? $1.15 is not too much difference, but when you need 32 of them......:eek: That begins to add up fast. payton 05-13-2002, 02:18 PM with all the cheap fakes and knock offs.. rember this one simple and very important rule... YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.. and yes when buying 32 studs it does add up fast.. but id rather spend a extra 40 bucks up front then a 50 dollar tow bill... then 40 bucks for new rotor.. 50 bucks new studs and bearins.. and what ever else . not inculdin body.. Eric 05-13-2002, 02:21 PM I understand what you are saying, but when the EXACT SAME part differs by $1.15, which one are you going to buy?

I think somebody missed the point! :rolleyes: Eric 05-13-2002, 02:36 PM I tried to explain it twice....:rolleyes: larryboy 05-13-2002, 06:27 PM $2.59 at kragen. 85TrailToy 05-13-2002, 06:33 PM Eric, I think $1.60 is about as cheap as you'll find them. I had to buy 12 12mm lug nuts (because AIM fawked up:mad:) and they were almost $20!:eek: I'm beginning to wonder if I can afford this hobby!:goofball:
