Never tubed, but waiting get tubbed!
As for studs, techs should follow the NHRA Ruling on them, where the stud must protrude into the lug not less then the diameter of the stud...or something like that. Basically I've run a 16" ET Street on stock rims and studs for long time. But, once I got the 15" I swapped in a set of Lingenfelter Studs, which 7 snapped within a month. Then went and found the 3" ARP's.
