longer bolts instead of extended studs?
Is it at all possible to replace honda's studs with bolts? I'd like to use 10 mm spacers for my OEM (+55) wheels in winter which means I'd have to use extended studs, but my summer rims will be +45, so I'll need shorter studs again. It would be much more comfortable to have two sets of bolts, what do you think? I've never had such a problem so never thought about it...
By the way, it is my BBK-to-be which forces the use of spacers in winter, still I'm going to have a problem with my spare wheel all year round. Is it possible to use any spacer with a stock spare or I have to look for an alternative?
Thanks for advice.

Why not just use some open lug nuts?
Lug Nut - M12x1.5x20 Open Hex (Ball Seat)
That way, it won't matter if your studs are extended.

Locks don't really help anyway. A wheel thief can easily grab the lock with one of those sockets that's made to take out damaged bolts.
