Default just snaged some prostars

Just snagged a pair of prostars with hoosiers already mounted on them. I've still got stock length studs in the back of my 12 bolt. What lug nuts should i order to make these work? I know i need shank style nuts whats everyone run? and where can i get the longer studs as well?

i would suggest running a longer stud... I just upgraded my studs to 1/2 studs just to be safe and you can get the correct lug to match its the open ended shoulder style or shank style they call it .

Mine are 12mm 1.5 rh, shank style, for sure do studs , your more than likely going to have to run a spacer

what length studs will i need i know they need to be flush or stick out of the nut. also where can i order them from? i haven't seen open ended shank nuts in the local auto store i worked at. I figured i'll probably run into a spacer issue once i get them all lined up i'm also sure i'll probably have to do some grinding.

Summit has them, there cheap, summits will do the job but rust quick but i think there like 6 bucks for 4, you will also need to grind your calipers, i forget what size spacer i have on there but im sure ya can search tech and find out,this topic is brought up everyother day, you can also order the studs/spacers n lugs all at summit
