Default Wheel Studs

I'm trying to locate wheel studs for a 67 rs/ss. Attached is a photo of what the auto stores come up with vs the black on I took off. Any ideas? 7/16 x 20



Thanks!!

For most parts there are levels of originality of parts. The price will go up with the levels but the more common the parts have the better the price.

Level 1: Parts store (it will fit, it will work but it is designed to fit as many cars as possible. It could be stronger and last longer due to more modern manufacturing processes.)

Level 2: These look correct for 99% of the people out there but a real car show judge may deduct a point for it.

Level 3: Original or NOS, an expert can hold this part in his hand and not tell the difference form a factory original. This level requires a ton of research. Many companies will claim Original OEM level and I have seen judges say that not factory that the XXX company repop, In some cases the repops are better and that is the tell. Sucks to loose a show because your chrome is too shinny but it happens.

I do not know if these are level 2 or 3. I would assume level 2. This was just a quick google search.

Thank you for the reply. If you notice the knurl diameter is different than the one that comes up for that year/model. I'm not worried about OEM details, just needs to fit in wheel hub.

I've been to five auto stores and everything online is pointing the shiny stud you see in the picture. I'm on here looking to see if anyone recognizes the black stud because I'm unable to find it.
