Depends on if you are running spacers or not. If you get extended studs you may need open ended lug nuts depending on the length of the stud.

There is zero reason to run extended studs unless you are running spacers

Fixed your quote there a little. There are benefits to running extended studs - but the benefits are nearly entirely for the track or any high-stress situation. The combination of stronger studs that are longer help with safety margins.

Seeking advice...I’m interested in installing extended studs particularly the ARP studs. I need to do this as a safety requirement for the track In order to use Drag Radials. The issue I have is trying to find an open ended mag style lug but with washer to use on my OEM wheels for off track/daily use.

I read in a thread somewhere that someone tried cutting the caps off their OEM lugs but I’m not sure if this actually worked. If anyone has any suggestions/experience on an open ended mag style nut with washer or whether cutting the caps off the OEM lugs actually works pls chime in

The better question is... how does nobody make aftermarket lug nuts that work for our oem wheels?! There's got to be a ton of people running oem wheels, that want to jazz up the look of their car a bit... but no options exist!

No Kidding .... this is the first I’ve ever heard of this issue. I am surprised that for as long as this platform has been out that no one has made one yet. Looks like cutting the OEM lugs is what it’s gonna be....especially since I need to run extended studs

Z1 sells OEM type lugs in chrome or black

Yah I saw those...I was referring to aftermarket lugs with different designs and colors. Also a type of lug that would fit both the OEM and aftermarket wheels without having to switch them out.

I just bought a set of 370z Nismo wheels for my 350z, and I've been looking for locking lug nuts. I think that these might work:

Has anyone used them? They also offer the normal ones:

I had a Porsche that had aluminum lug nuts on steel studs and so I used a little Permatex anti-seize compound on the threads of the studs after each removal of a wheel. It's good to clean off the old anti-seize compound before putting new stuff on. Being black anodized lugs, I always used a hand torque wrench when removing or tightening nuts. The anti-seize compound is also good for the steel threads on a spark plug when it's screwed into an aluminum cylinder head.

Where you been. The anti-seize is SOP. ;)
