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?

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.
