Hi Richard,
I'm pretty sure they are the same thing, and the issue is mostly rounding (bear with me a second). The wheel studs that say they have a .54 generally have a .545. Technically, that should round up to .55, but not all do for one reason or another. So that was the long way of saying yes, you can use the Wheel Stud - Drive In 1/2" x 2-1/2" # 165995 with its .54" knurl on your hub with one that has a .55" knurl.

Hey Richard, how did the wheel stud with the .54 knurl work out in your hub that had the .55 size? Knowing how the fit turned out could help others sorting through the same size difference.
