Default 65mm Wheel stud w/ CCW wheels

Before I buy some studs, can anybody confirm if a 65mm length stud will work fine with a CCW C10 wheel? I don't like using anything longer than what is needed for studs.

Let the RS modding begin!

Did you ever get a proper answer on this?
What did you end up going with?

Till you put stock wheels on, then it's a pain in the ***. They're too short for that.

never been a problem for me. I hate long studs, just means you have to drag your wheels across even longer threads, and they look terrible, and weigh more.

I had 80mm studs, and I thought it was difficult trying to thread the nuts into the recess on the stock wheels. Now w the ccw's it was a piece of cake as the metal is cut around the holes. However, on the stock 19's, it was a nuisance. I'm not running the studs anymore as I got tired of them constantly backing out or the nuts getting stuck in the socket on my impact gun.
