Default rs 7 spokes on a 3 door.
ive bought a set of 17" hardline rs 7 spokes for my 3 door. when i put them on the nut would only go on 3 threads. it has standered wheels just now. am i going to need to buy longer studs or diffrent nuts.

Yes you will need longer studs.
Front will need spacers too as will be tight on the caliper

Heres mine when I had them on

cheers for that. where did you get them from? do you remember the length?

did you have soft lines on it at some point?
