take the spacers off.. sell them. buy some new studs at autozone they are like a $1.50 each.
done and done
you could go and get some open ended lugs but that would look stupid

buying new studs is cheaper than the wheels you had to buy.......
are you this dense all the time?
spend the 15 bucks for better/ longer studs, nix the spacers and be happy

Ok, I had some wheels that had longer studs(and spacers) to fit. I sold those wheels and got different wheels with thinner faces. I got spacers on those but they look dumb because they stick out from the front too much. Is there some special lug nuts that i can get that would get rid if the spacers?
^If that is what your trying to say, just remove the spacers and bolt up some open ended lugnuts on it. Yes, it will look homo if the studs are sticking out far past the open end of the lugs.

You mean the wheels needs longer studs to fit, right?

What the hell is thinner faces? Does it have anything to do with spacers? And did you try remove the spacers?
Is there some special lug nuts that i can get that would get rid if the spacers?
There ain't any special lug nuts that will get rid "if" the spacers, but unbolt the lug nuts, remove wheel, and remove spacer will get rid of the spacer.

Chituntang- I was trying to make sense of the op's post and got myself a brain fart.
From what I got, he has lugs that will bottom out and won't even touch the rim. So he added spacers to make the studs shorter so his lugs could sit properly, but the front sticks out too much for his taste. He then comes on here asking what he needs.

OP is saying that he HAD weak offset rims. so he used spacers to make them "flush", with the addition of the spacer came the need for longer studs. Weak offset rims were then sold, new rims aquired. Apparently with a better offset, SO OP wants to take off the spacer, BUT with the longer studs, the closed ended lug nuts will bottom out. Therefore he needs to get OPEN ENDED lug nuts.

Yeah, others have been piecing the puzzle together for me, so I kinda think-it-out.
I guess it is funny when you spend so much money on the car and you still want to cheap out and use stock studs and/or lug nuts with "thin" face wheels.

I don't get it. You had shitty offset wheels, so you had to put spacers on, but then you needed to get longer studs because of the spacers. Is this correct so far?
Then you bought bettter offset wheels and NOW you don't need the spacer. But now your not happy with having longer stud. And you don't want to spend any money to correct this. But yet your asking for a solution.
Well then how about cutting your extended lugs if you don't want to spend any money. Because there isn't really any solution w/o spending SOME dollars.

I was thinking something along the lines of what was asked in these 2 posts...
Why did you make two of these threads?
Like the people before me said, I don't get wtf you're saying.
Use punctuation.
You did graduate high school right?
Then someone was nice enough to put it all together, such as...
OP is saying that he HAD weak offset rims. so he used spacers to make them "flush", with the addition of the spacer came the need for longer studs. Weak offset rims were then sold, new rims aquired. Apparently with a better offset, SO OP wants to take off the spacer, BUT with the longer studs, the closed ended lug nuts will bottom out. Therefore he needs to get OPEN ENDED lug nuts.
END THREAD
And I would be inclined to agree with him as well.
If that is not the answer to your question, do us all the favor of better articulating what it is you need to know, respond to people who are asking questions to try helping you, and THEN if you start a thread, give it a title that people may be more inclined to click on without ridiculing you.
Or...
Sell the car and go back to grade 3.
