it all depends on the size of the spacer i guess. 90mm sounds pretty long. i bought mine from ECS a few years ago and on their site, for the 15mm spacers i have in the rear the bolt was 60mm (full shaft lenght, only 45mm threaded portion)

90mm total length

I was running with 15 & 20 mm spacers, and you want to be sure there is at least 2 threads visible past the lug nut

Also remember that many studs have an unthreaded section at the end

Better to be long than short
