wheel spacer Q

ok, i went to bolt my 2" spacers on the rear of my iroc last weekend, and found out that the studs are too short to work with the factory lugnuts.

So ppl here, what's next? some odd ball skinny lugnuts or do i need longer studs?

Anyone else have this problem??
And does anyone know if i'll have the same problem up front with the 2" spacers?

longer studs. its the only way to install spacers safely. you should have 1" of stud protruding from the wheel or better.
