It rubbed pretty much everything it could come in contact with and my track was super tight. Now it might be a little different with the longer lug track but your still going to run into the same space issues with that length stud rotating in there. It also dinged my heat exchanger a few times too which wasn't pleasing with me. Ran about 400 miles with 1.450 length macks then took them out for 1.325's. What a pain in the balls......not worth it. But others on here will say the exact opposite and that is why originally I went with the longer studs. That is why I said I would go for the 1.5 intense in the above post

See what I mean Yamahafreak.........everyone has there own opinion on the subject. I'm not saying it can't be done, it can, but your going to get rubbing under there.
Badsled it sounds like we had similar results, my damage wasn't horrible but not worth keep chancing it. I also had mack brand studs which i've heard are longer then woodys.

This is the first i have heard of a 1.5 intense with no studs rubbing on a nytro

Yeah, I was told there should be enough clearance, but after I got the track installed I could barely rotate it cause it was rubbing on the front protectors. Oh well, I don't ever plan on running studs so I don't need them anyway and they weren't hard at all to remove.
