wheel studs

So i just installed my 20" boss 338 on my newly installed cpp big brake 5 lug kit on my 1970 swb, so i had to temporarily use open end acorn nuts and noticed that the wheel studs seemed short as they don't extend past the end of lug nuts. is this normal?

Re: wheel studs

maybe get longer wheel studs to make them fit nicer

Re: wheel studs

What was suggested to me before is to count the turns you get on your lug nut when installing, five being the minimum.
