whats up all

i had some 350z wheels i was gonna run with like a 20mm spacer so i bought a full set of 60mm extended studs..

but i got new wheels with much better fitment and im not going to run spacers anymore..so my ? is this

would there be any real benefit to installing the extended studs without spacers...or is it just excessive/pointless...

im thinking that regardless there should be more "clamping force" keeping the wheel on..probly an extra 3/4 inch of thread....with closed extended lugs. As open lugs would sorta be pointless...

if i put the extended studs i was thinking muteki extended lugs..

or should i just sell the studs and keep the stock size with regular lugs..\?
