Any one here run weld wheels with stock wheel studs? It's a street car so I dont want to go through the trouble of pressing in longer studs into the hubs. Which I heard can be a real pain in the ass. And then i would have to also buy open-ended lug nuts for the wheels i normally run the car on.
I can't see why it would be a problem. But maybe someone here as already done this and has some tips here...

I am guessing 20mm adapters would be enough to clear the brakes and not make the tires hit the fender?

You're asking us without telling us offset, backspace, wheel width, or wheel diameter?
You're wasting our time.

I was referring to the 3.5" wide skinnies up front. They will hit the TII brake calipers if not spaced out or shaved down.
I was told before 15mm works best, but I do not want to cut down the factory bolt (which you have to do with 15mm adapters). I would just use longer studs if i was to do that.
