Stock wheel bolts

How thick of a wheel spacer can you safely add using the stock length wheel bolts ?....
or is using the stock bolts other than for a stock set up asking for trouble.?

What is the advantage of using studs and nuts?

Thanks
Dave

You need longer bolts with spacers. Its not worth your life.

Studs are better if your wheels come off regularly because the enable you to put the wheel on easier. If they don't and you don't qant the racer look, than stick with bolts.
