helps to keep the nut from binding on the stud plate if you use a pass through nut like shown....if you use a lug nut, then you HAVE to use the washers to make the lugnut tighten the stud into place. because your lug nut isn't pass through (like the first pic) it will never thread all the way down to the stud plate, and pull the stud through, if you use a pass through nut, like in the pictures, then the washers just keep scarring and binding against the stud plate to a minimum, only one or two is all you will need if you do it this way.
