Wheel Studs and nuts

HI,
Please I need some advise.
I have just installed some long wheel studs on my struts and axles.
Can I use them with these rims?
Can I get some open face nuts that will let me mount these rims.
i only have the tapered nuts which are no good .

Do I need to press out the studs and go back to the original length studs?
I wanted the option of using some spacers down the track if need be.

TIA
Emil

    I put some studs that were too long on... I just took them with the angle grinder.

    You'll probably find long enough nuts & washers here:

    www.niceproducts.com.au
    (click on products, then wheel products & download

    any auto store should be able to get them

    Cheers
