25mm Spacers with standard studs?

I have on 25mm Spacers all around to make it flush. But i am using the standard stock studs. I've heard some bad things about it. Can anyone share? Thanks!

I'm surprised the lug nuts reach the OEM studs with 25mm spacers on. I believe a minimum of 5-6 rotations of the lug nut is considered safe.

thats impossible, you must mean you are using bolt on spacers that attach to your stock studs, the OEM studs aren't even 25mm in length

Stock studs don't stick out that far.

They hid inside +25mm spacer

i don't believe H&R makes bolt on spacers, or do they?

or perhaps the 25mm spacers are bolt on? iirc, their smaller spacers come with extended studs.

you guys are right. I was worried when i read somewhere about someone's standard studs broke with a 5mm spacers. I do have the H&R spacers. Now i remember, it does have it's own studs. Oopz. Sorry. Thanks guys for re-ensuring me. I was kinda paranoid these days when i was driving.
