Is it safe to use 10mm wheel spacers with stock stud length?
Seems to be a lot of stud but i'm not sure.

Anyone use any spacers?
 
No stock studs with 10mm spacers.

I have 6mm spacers and with the wheels I have I can get about 6 threads engaged in the lug nut with stock wheel studs.....

You will need:
610-341 studs because they are a good 10mm longer than stock bolts and it will give me plenty of threads for the lug nuts spacers are installed:
DORMAN part number 610-341:

Rockauto $1.43 EA ($38.86 shipped with 5% coupon for 20)
