Looking for a rear wheel carrier to hold a spare SIP tubeless....

Style similar to this... obviously the studs wont fit... anyone any bright ideas other than grinding out the short studs and replacing them?

Hi Bob, I had this problem so removed the four studs from the carrier and fitted M8 rivnuts in their place then secured the wheel in position with four bolts.
Hope this helps

Guys, I used 4 extended cylinder head nuts, screwed them onto the carrier and then used 4 Allen bolts to fix the rim to the carrier, worked well.

I used stud extenders/connectors on each of the existing studs, then bolt the rim in with M8 bolts
