They don't stick out too far, and there is plenty of thread even if I wanted to run spacers within reason, but if I run my Carrera twist wheels, the rear have a pretty deep well for the lug nut and it is tough to start the nut by hand, if I had it to do over again I would get the 80 mm or even the 90 bullet nose:

This is the wheel I'm talking about, have a pretty deep well in the wheel for the lug bolt/stud/nut, unfortunately this picture is the front, which has a shallow well and was easy to start by hand.



I love them, very easy to take wheels on and off this way.

Are this bolts or studs in the pic?
Looks like bolts

Those are the OEM wheel bolts, that is just the only picture of the style of wheel that I could find. Let me hunt around and see if I can find a picture with the studs.

[Edit: I found a pic of my rear wheel on the car with the studs in that style and replaced the picture, so now it shows the studs]

Here is that style of wheel, with the front wheel shown with the studs.

Go longer, in fact I think I may go ahead and order the 90mm bullets... They don't stick out super far if you are worried about that.
