Default lug studs?

Does anyone know what the width of a stock lug stud is? I'm trying to buy a spacer and want to know if I can still used my stock lug nuts

What kind of spacer? Teraflex and Spidertrax both come with nuts to attach the spacer to rotor. You would then use the original lug nuts to hold the wheel to the spacer.

If you are looking at spacers at your local auto parts store, just put them down and walk away. They are dangerous.

Oh. Gotcha!

Check the For Sale section. People sometimes will split them apart or are selling one spacers after a bumper/tire carrier change.

...or just go buy a crappy one that cppower was talking about from your local autosupply. That would do fine for a spare tire and much cheaper than a Spidertrax.
