Default Which Shank Lugs With Extended Studs?

I'm installing extended ARP studs(1-3/4" longer than stock) and I'm having trouble finding which shanked lugs I should use with them. I searched and called Summit tech with no luck. I'm running Bogart rims if it matters.

Thanks for any help.

depends on how long of a shank you need for the wheels but these have the little caps you can remove for extended studs

That's the thing; how do I know how long of a shank I need? Can I measure the ones I have now and just get open ended ones of the same size? I didn't think it would be this hard to find lugs.

measure how thick the wheel is, the length of the studs doesnt matter. you want to longest shank that will go through the wheel without hitting the brake hub when you tighten it down. the longer the shank, the more thread engagement and the stronger the bite, too long and itll hit the hub before it tightens down. not sure about bogarts but welds use a 1.365" shank and holeshots use a .746" if your running a spacer or .490" without one.
