    Has anyone replaced their wheel spacer studs with longer ones? Looking to buy a pair of spacers however I'm worried the studs will be too short for my aftermarket wheels. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

    I havent heard of this before cause the wheel spacers nuts should be long enough to accommodate any rim. Go with Spidertrax wheel spacers...thats what most people on here run.

    Too few to list.
    If you need to extend the spacer wheel studs, you either have the wrong spacers or the wrong wheels. I do know Autozone carries a variety of wheel studs and I assume pep boys as well.

    Well my wheels right now have a pretty thick mounting plate. To mount it to my hub I get about 8-9 turns of the lugs, I have extended shank gorilla spline ones, so I'm worried that the studs on the spacer will be too short to accommodate my wheel. Anything less than 5 turns will make me uneasy.
