how much space do you need?

I have a set of 10mm spacers I used with out issue, I can sell..

If you need an inch or more then you will not need longer studs. since your rims will be on a new set of studs..

then you will not need longer studs

your studs will go into the spacer, put on some lug nuts, then your rims mount to the studs on the spacer, and put on another set of lug nuts

Wheel spacers that have their own wheel studs in them start at 1".

Best way to see what you need is to measure how much clearance you'd like and start from there. I don't put less than a 1.5" on anything and typically use it for everything.
