Will the M14x1.5 mustang wheel studs fit the Factory Five wheels? I am think about leaving the mustang wheel studs in the rear hub and changing out the front. The wheel spacers I am going to use would also have the same studs. Please advise.

I think they do but I would leave the studs in and get nuts that fit them. then attach the spacers with the metric nuts Order the spacers with the 1/2-20 just like the fronts.

Why do people make this so complicated???

Not trying to make it hard. The wheel spacer are over $100 with the more 12 -20 studs, and the M14x1.5 is a bigger diameter stud. I don’t have my kit yet to verify before ordering the spacers. Thanks
The 1/2" studs are plenty strong. Ford used them for years. They went metric starting in 2015 like most everything else they build. At .50 compared to .5512 (14mm) you're gaining very little. SAE wheel spacers are widely available. Anybody that sells Mustang stuff has both. Have gone through this several times and never had trouble getting SAE ones. Do what you want of course.
