Studs - How long do I need?
I want to get these Muteki SR48 Lug Nuts which are 48mm.
I want to get the Turner 75mm studs No spacer on the front wheels, but will have a 5mm spacer on rear. Am I OK on the rear or should I get the 90mm studs? Also, any red flags about the Muteki brand? I'm in love with the color.

IDK, but I'd like to know as well, I want to swap out so I'm not always fastening and unfastening using the threads in the hub. Good question!

You'll be fine with 75mm up to about a 10mm spacer.
It also depends on whether you like the look of the studs protruding or want them hidden. I'm running 15mm rear spacers & 12.5mm fronts. I'm using Kics R40 lug nuts I'm using 90mm studs with this setup & the studs poke out just slightly. side note... the Kics R40 lug nuts with hardened floating seats are the cats ass. With the floating seats they torque up much more evenly & if you have your wheels off/on as much as I do, they really help to minimize wear & tear to the wheel seats.

Thanks for the info. The Kics are nice but I'm not about to spend $250 on a set unless you know of a deal. Also, my wheels won't be removed often. My main concern is safety on the track.

Thanks for the info guys.
I went ahead and placed an order for the Turner 75mm studs and Muteki lugs. I couldn't resist the Burning Blue Neon color combination with my Dark Gun Metallic Advan RS, and 48mm is the perfect length for the lug top to sit flush in these wheels. If I have problems with the lug key, I guess my bad

for reference, heres the 75mm units installed with the kics... you can see the fronts are flush with a 12mm spacer, the rear sticks out very slightly.
