Default Extended wheel studs on weld pro stars?

I'm putting weld pro stars on my 95 Trans Am, the question is do I need extended wheel studs on the front and back? What length and size do I need, or a part number.

you need this stud.

http://www.thunderracing.com/catalog...vid=4&pcid=148

The 3.25" length you need but if you switch to different rims you wont be able to fit hub caps on. Youll also need lug nuts.

the lug nuts are shank style 12mm X 1.5 they come in opend end and close end, to run on the track you need open end.

heres a link from summit where i got mine

well I already have lug nuts they are the 12mm x 1.5 but they are the closed end will they work for now with that 3.25 stud? Other question being do I need longer studs on the front wheels?

Alot of people run longer studs up front because the tend to use a small spacer with prostars.

I run stock studs. I do not use spacers on my rears.
I use the lugs that came with the prostars.

I'm running stock studs with no spacers as well. Will need spacers when I do new brakes, I don't want to grind anymore of the caliper off.
