    yeah i got the hubcentric spacers so i wouldnt have to get the longer studs
    the studs on the car to the spacer are perfect distance that done hit the rim and then the studs on to the rim sit flush I believe with the rim, the dont come out from what I can remember. I test fit them during the summer so if you wanted I could take a look in the morning

    That is the problem. The threaded portion of the stud must protrude a distance equal to the diameter of the stud in the lug nut portion. (In english the nut portion must have stud threads engaged). The shank portion of the lug does not comply with the rule.

    The problem is the track I go to the most checks every lug at tech.

    i'll be honest, a bolt on spacer makes me far more nervous than the current setup that i run. and the setup i am running makes me a tad on the nervous side....

    I think I am going to take the Bogart solution. I didn't use the wheels so they can go back to Jegs.

    Tony I did some measuring. With a 3/4" spacer and the long ARP studs you will have 1/4" thread engagement in the nut. The studs are 1/2" in diameter so this is 50% legal. LOL

    Looks like a 1/2" spacer is what is needed to be legal.
