do I need longer studs?
 
I can't recall how much thread is on the stock lug/rim combination but I just got new SSR wheels and I'm running them with muteki SR48 lugs. The lugs have about 10 full turns going in before hitting 85psi. Is that enough teeth to hold my rims on properly? I track my car a few times a year and would like to NOT do what a certain RX7 did.

I'm running 20mm h&r bolt on spacers in the rear. I'm assuming I can hammer the studs out of the spacers if I had to go longer, yes?

I do intend to swap back and forth between stock wheels and aftermarket since I use the stock wheels for certain applications at the track. Specifically my stockers have cheaper tires on to burn through at the skid pads for drifting use.

If more details are needed, let me know. :tiphat:

10 full turns is way more than enough

Any idea how many turns are on the stock ones? Laziness keeps me from running to the garage and re-mounting stock rims.
