please explain
extended studs are meant to give you more tread to thread lugnuts to your wheels just in case they may come loose while racing. However they are not meant to push in and throw in a spacer over them so you just have enough thread to properly seat a lugnut, because the tq transfer from your diff, to your hubs, to the wheel now is transfered through your lugnuts which is the only static reinforcement keeping the wheel on the car.

just grab some spagetti and give it an Indian burn. you'll see. lol
