10mm spacers with factory studs?

I only need to pull out of 10mm, can I only use spacers without longer studs? Is it safe? Factory studs look long enough to accept 10mm spacers...
What do you guys think?
I wanted to get spacers similar to this:

absolutely NOT long enough. You need to get6 40mm studs for sure. The install is easy as pie. I just did a spacer install last weekend on my car. The old studs pop out easily with a few bangs of a hammer and i used an electric impact gun to install the new studs

Yes, get the studs. I can't remember the exact number of turns lost on my 5mm spacers but it was enough for me not to feel confident in hard driving so I changed them out.

I am nervous on putting spacers on my car now LOL
From what I understand, all this make sense to me.
Now, who wants spacers here?
A set of ichiba v2 20mm and a set of 10 mm (noname) I ordered yesterday....
