Ok so why do your wheel studs need to be protruding 1-2 inches from your actual wheel?

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.
Hope this helps

Like I said its opinion. But obviously its not needed. Stock length or 1/2 inch longer wouldve been fine for me. To me its just not the clean look I like to go for.

rich you have to run extended studs to use slip on spacers over 5mm thick . Thus why he is running extended studs... that and running slicks are the ONLY reasons extended studs are needed

Well I understand that. Just saying lugs that long arent necessary. But its part of a style thing as well. Just not my style.

yes they are necessary when running spacers, he is running spacers hence the necessity of running extended studs because you cannot run anything larger then 5mm on stock studs

Running studs that stick out almost 2 more inches is necessary? I get the running a somewhat extended lug. Im just questioning that much of an extension.

dude its like a dog chasing its tail...I get what your saying. and i agree,a slightly longer stud would be fine, but for some reason people are brainwashed into this hella flush shit. Hopefully this fad is flushed soon. I HATE seeing people use slip on spacers.

and I'm sure the oem studs would have just sheared off.

My personal opinion...

Run parts out of necessity.
If your base necessity is a bandwagon trend....well....

to each his own, even though I will never understand.
