    I would say no.

    You could simply install screw in studs and use conventional lug nuts. This also make mountinf the tire/wheel combination a LOT easier than trying to line up the holes to get the lug bolt started.

      Definitely go with studs. There are three different lengths of Gorilla brand studs at Amazon. Thread is 12mm x 1.5.

        Pretty sure most spacers that thick are the studded ones that are also bolt pattern adapters, so I'd say yes. Unless he has found some that aren't studded with recesses for the nuts/bolts on the car already.

        Any difference that makes no difference is no difference.
