I'm trying to get the effective length of the stud to see if I need opened ended lugs for each of my wheel applications (I'm running BBS LM-R, OEM plus 12mm & 15mm spacers, and a winter set). Hoping to get a one size fit all conversion without too much stud exposure. Ideally I would like to get closed end lug nuts without any stud exposure.

Thanks!
Measurement is total stud length.

To safely run a 15mm spacer, you need to run a 90mm stud. 12mm can use a 75mm.
