ok look at the three pictures.
first is stud 5/8" stud in stock rim
second is stud and nut in stock rim
third is socket over stud in stock rim
so does this mean a 5/8 will work in stock rim?

damn. id have never thought it would have fit in the stock hole.
you would have to machine the inside of the rim flat so the washers could sit on it.
OR
you could get real trick and have some washers made that look like a nitrous jet so you wouldnt have to machine your wheel.
you could use the reg washers on drag wheels at the track, and then throw your stock wheels on with no modifications if you ever wanted to unload the wheels.

5/8 studs will not work on the majority of stock wheels, i know because i removed the 5/8 studs on my 9" rear for that matter, also finding the proper lug nut with proper angle once u open the holes up on the wheels is damn near impossible and very expensive if u do find some. Id swap to a smaller stud. I thought about machining spacers once i got the holes reamed out so i could still use the moser lugs that came with it, and i decided it wasnt worth the hassle.
