Default Spacer Q

If i get some 15mm spacer, will i NEED to get longer wheel studs? Will i be safe if i don't? And how about lug nuts, can i keep my rays extended lug nuts?

BTW i have Volk TE's...19x9.5/10.5 +22 all around if that matters.

I difinitely recommend NISMO Long studs. I have them on my FX(4000+ lbs) along with 15mm H&R spacers. From what I heard, NISMO bolts are more durable, built strong than OEM or any other long studs.

H&R spacers come with longer studs included. They work just fine.

Ok, so i was told my a "source" that the 15mm spacer won't work on my car becuase i have a bumper and side skirts. I was told it would stick out way to much and would look stupid....although i konw a guy from Texas with the Time attack has these spacer on........but anyways. My Q is would i need new studs if i get 5mm spacers? or only for 15's?
