    I've got 1 1/4 wheel spacers for my wheels, but I'm not happy with how much threads I can see inside the spacer above the lugs. I'm ether going to have to get longer studs, or get some extended lug nuts for spacers. I'd rather go with the extended lugs than tare it all apart to change the lug bolts. I've looked all over down here where I live and they don't t even know what I'm talking about. Can anyone tell me where to order them from that will work on the spacers like the ones in the picture below? 135-999980.jpg

    Which spacers did you get? I have SpiderTrax and they bolt to the original studs, then have 6 studs of their own that the wheels now bolt to. Used the same lug nuts...no issues.

    Any hub centric wheel spacer will do the trick. Not those crap universal spacer.

    Fyi, this guy pre-assembles wheel bearings and hubs with extended lugs.

    I've got the studs like those but having to pull them all apart to change out the studs, I think I'll wait till I tare them down to change the studs, and just use the longer lug nuts for now. Its probable OK the way it is but I'll feel better with those long nuts on it.

    I run the extended thread lug nuts with my spacers, I'm positive its better with them than without.

    Yeah! Well I'm 57, and at my age, I'm a little more precocious than these younger one are. I like to do it and forget it, instead of worry!

    Wish I bought those, but the ones that came with my spidertrax spacers are still holding strong though.
    I used blue loctite on the spacers then torqued the wheel to the spacer.

    With the spiderTrax do you get a full nut of threads.

    Yes, I did. I have the 1.25" blue aluminum ones...I think like everyone else. That's why I originally thought the OP had the universal spacers. The spacer nuts in his picture looks way different than mine and he's running 1.25", too.

    Ok thanks. I my go with the spiderTrax also. I ordered a set of some other brand ( don't recall the brand) and I gladly paid return shipping. Only 1/2 nut of threads and I didn't want to change all my studs
