Mike, when you changed to the Nismo studs did you happen to measure the length of the olds ones? I want to add a little length to mine for after market wheels (10mm) but hopefully short enough that I can still mount the stock wheels with the stock lugs.

No I didn't. Nismo studs come in 50mm and 60mm lengths though. I opted for the 60mm so there are some that are shorter than mine. I have to use open ended lugs.

I have open lugs for the aftermarket wheels.

What open lugs would you recommend for the stock wheels? I thought we were only supposed to use the washer style lugs on these wheels?

Yeah the stock wheels will only work with the stock lugs, or lugs that have the same design, but I don't know of any of the top of my head.
