Default Taking off 10mm and 15 mm spacers question.

I have 10 mm in the front and 15 mm in the rear however I want to take these out. Do i just take them out? and put the wheels back on? or do i have to take out the hub and take out the longer screws and put the stock screws back on? any help would be appreciated.

You don't have to take out the studs, only if you want to. It'll just cost more money to have them removed.

You might not be able to use your stock lug nuts anymore w/ the super long studs that you have installed already..you may need to temporarily use some open-ended lug nuts

I bet this is what you will have to do I wouldnt use the OEM lugs with the extended lugs. Why are you taking them off Is it for winter months only or are you done with them? IMO dont take any chances.
