    I just bought new rims(raceline raptors) for my 04 6lug and the studs stick out maybe 1/8" into the lug nuts. Will extended thread lug nuts fix my problem? It seems as though the gorilla e/t lug nuts don't give much more bite????

    I have a good buddy that runs a truck parts store and he called his wheel guy and the wheel guy said to just get extended thread Lugnuts and he's never had a problem. Worked perfect

    Yes thats what you need. I have these for my XDs. Thankfully the guys that put my tires on told me I needed different lugnuts and they threw them in with the tire install.

    A better solution is longer lugs, check the sticky.
