The purpose to run an extended stud is to be able to run a wheel spacer without limiting the amount of threads left on the stud. Really serves no purpose unless your planning on running spacers due to a custom offset wheel or running a set of slicks. You will also need to have lug nuts designed for extended studs whether that be open or closed end.

Do you think the Skunk2 Forged extended lug nuts will fit on sportmaxx rims? Heres a link to the s2 lugnuts and here a link on the wheels. Because im not sure if the hole on the rims will be to small for the lug nuts to fit..

Yeah should work, most aftermarket lug nuts are designed for aftermarket wheels.

Dont be cheap, buy ARP studs. Blox **** sucks. I ran into nothing but problems installing them onto my 92 civic si front hub and fork. I also noticed the material they use to manufacture the stud is crap. Threads were inaccurate and lugs did not screw on smoothly.

I would go with ARP hardware on anything fastener related, such better quality. I absolutely hate when products are just a little bit off Didnt even notice he mentioned blox studs
