Default TITAN STUDS W/Spacers

OK so i recently came up on some slip on spacers there about a little less than 1/2" so i got to put them on front and my studs don't reach.(i have aftermarket Zenetti legends) so i know i need longer studs. i read the spacer thread and realized i needed longer studs. i know i could find em everywhere but I'm not trying to spend an arm and a leg. so i did some homework and found out that the Nissan titan studs are exactly the same except they are 6mm longer, and my current setup with the spacer causes the stud to be flush with the wheel therefore not allowing the tapered lug to reach(I also read up on some lugs that are thinner on the threaded side so that they can go through the rim to reach the stud). so my question to you guys is has anyone tried changing their stock studs for Titan studs before and/or will the extra 6mm be enough for the lugs to grab safely? any POSITIVE feedback welcome

Not titanium, Nissan Titan studs. 6mm is not enough thread length to properly engage the studs. ~8mm is the minimum amount required.

Okay, I was like I've never heard of anyone having titanium studs.

6mm is not much at all, that's only a bit under 1/4" and is not enough engagement. Why not go aftermarket on the studs so you know you'll have plenty of engagement? They generally hold up better to frequency wheel mount and dismounts if you get something quality they ARP.
