Wheel Stud/Lug nut ?? Quick answer please
I just added 5/16 spacers to my rear rims and I wonder if my lugs got threaded enough on the stock studs. They have been turned like 6 times. So its one turn to get in on the stud then I took a socket and counted the number of turns it made. I counted a total of 6/7. Is thats safe?

I ran the same spacers on the rear and then one day BANG! all the studs on one side broke off and the wheel came off. These were Moroso studs. Probably all the launches with slicks did them in. Remember if you have to ask the question "is that safe", most likely it is not.

If I were u I would get some WHEEL ADAPTERS. Others on the board have them. I might get some 1" adapters to put on different wheels I have.
