I'm assuming I have a later truck rear as it's a 5x5 patern. Anyone know what rear wheels studs are needed? Snap one and want to replace with like ARP or something else legal.

I would go to a 1/2 inch long stud and open ended lug nut. Some of them screw in from the rear of the axle. Just check Jeg's or Summit.

I was going to go with press in's. Any idea regards to the knurl size? I have 1/2-20's right now, but like you mentioned I want to go open shank style.

Super I am currently shopping for the same thing and here is what I have found so far. I am also 5x5 1/2x20 thread.

I knocked one of my wheel studs out just over the weekend and it measures .524 on the knurl. The smallest stud I can find has a .530 knurl and the length is the same as this one. I too am going to a longer stud. So, I'm gunna buy some studs that have a .560-.565 knurl and just trim the axle a bit if that knurl is too large to pop the cherry :)

Those may work for Super.

Me.....I'm looking for something that's 2" in length minimum.

If you guys are going to run Weld draglites your going to need 3" studs and the really long shank nuts.

Those will need massaging. I actually ground a little off of the start of the knurl and forced them in. You will surprised hom much needs to be removed.
