It has cup car mirrors. Longer studs is a lot easier when swapping wheels & of course some wheel centers are thicker then stock or you put wheel spacers so you have put longer studs

I know about longer studs for certain spacer thickness, but those seem to stick WAY out, farther than necessary. And I noticed the cup mirrors, too. Never much cared for them.

The only drawback, if you look at it that way, is that it adds length to the studs, but that added length is completely functional.

If you look closely, you will see that the studs are not just longer, they are also dog pointed. The nuts are likely counterbored, as well. That means that the outer portion of threads is removed, and the nose of the stud is rounded. The nuts are similarly bare of threads at the beginning. This is a self alignment system that is used in high volume manufacturing on a somewhat frequent basis. It allows you to put the nut on the stud, and immediately run it down wtih a high speed, high torque driver without fear of cross threading. I would love to have some on my car.
