Wheel stud question

Okay, forgive me if this is in the wrong section but I have a general question for you guys. I am running a 20x8.5 in the front and a 20x10.5 in the rear with a +25 offset all around. The weather is going to be warming up soon and I need to change two of my wheel studs before I put my rims back on. I stripped one in the rear and another in the front, I was wondering for those of you that have gone with an extended wheel stud set up what size did you use and did you use aftermarket lugs as well. Thanks for the help and happy modding to all!

my general thought is that an extended wheel stud would be used if there was a spacer involved in the setup. Maybe someone else can chime in with an opinion...

I used extended wheel studs for rear , my rear spacer is 7mm so teh OE stud is too short. I believe I got it from Nissan dealer, they have the nismo long stud that fits G. Yes, i used after market spline drive lug nuts which is lighter, goes in deeper & will fit after market wheels with small holes.

To fit my BBK, I used 20mm Kicks wheel spacer for the front, Kick spacer comes with built in stud, so it's actually an Adaptor technically.
The adaptor type only comes with 15mm or thicker spacer applications.

I also have a small spacer as well but I think it was a 5mm or 10mm (I don't remember) but I know that I need to change two of the studs and I want to go longer because the spacers I were using seemed not to have the wheel lugs tightened in as far as they should've gone.
