Standard Ford part Dan .Couger, Mondeo, all the same.
Sierra fronts are a bit longer
But for longer studs Yukspeed is a good source.

One thing to watch for with these aftermarket studs is the longer shoulder area. I found that my RS2000 wheels with the flange nuts bottomed out
before the wheels were tight. At the front I had to swap them for original Sierra studs and I've fitted a 3mm spacer to the rears. The fronts are
worse because there is no drum or disc fitting over the studs before the wheel goes on. If you are not fitting spacers I'd stick with Ford studs
for the fronts.

I meant the longer Sierra studs. If your wheels have a thick centre then you should be okay with the aftermarket studs.
