Already have some, i'm not concerned about the lugnuts at all.
I guess i'll have to try the Impreza studs, unless anyone else has any more info on the subject.

just a safety concern here....looking at the photo of the impreza stud, the smooth part of the shaft is much longer then the stud next to it...if a flat tire should occur and if you are useing the spare tire/steel wheel, a "spacer" may be needed to properly torque the lug nutsAlready have some, i'm not concerned about the lugnuts at all.

Ya, it was. It was due to how low the suspension was hanging, that won't happen when its on the ground.

I used 60mm Nismo studs on my old RX, no mods were needed although they were LONG. I'd get the 50s if I was doing it again.
