Talking New wheel setup almost ready

Just got the ET Streets in earlier today and had to share my excitement to finally be able to hook up.

Those should work great! I've got the same ones and it's a strange sensation to launch so hard in a luxury car. Best of luck with them!

Very nice! Being able to put all the power down to the ground without spinning is a wonderful feeling.

Wish I could do that.. Even with my NT05's they still spin at 1/3 throttle It is fun from a roll however.

So I have the tires mounted, holes drilled, and the spacers but my lug studs are too long and bottom out on the hub face before securing the wheel down.
So for those of you running this setup what lugs are you using. I'm looking at the RAD ones so I can get the r12 seat but not sure if they will still be too long.
