Without knowing the brand of the wheels, I don't see how anyone can answer your question. Do they use conical lugs or shank style lugs?

direct replacement is arp #100-7708 wheel studs. those are the shorter of the 2 avail. 2.5" i believe. keeps the metric bolt pattern. ARP #100-7713 are 3.25" long they are both 12mm x 1.5

And you use the same Weld long shank lugs you already have, no matter how long the studs are.

With 3" studs on mine (1/2-20 screw-in), the ends of the studs stick about 3/8" out of the end of the lugs.
