Well, you're in a bit of a dilemma with that size wheel. It all depends on if the wheel has reliefs next to the standard lug holes on the backside of the wheel's hub (gaps between the lug holes, if you will). If it does have clearance there, your original lug studs will be able to clear the wheel with some studded spacers. If not, you'll need to get extended lug studs and run some standard wheel spacers. Ideally, you'd be looking at a 10 to 15mm spacer, both of which are too large for the factory lug studs.
