The 50mm was just enough in the front (the stud sticks out past the nut by a thread or two, and still easy access). The 60mm was way more threads than necc in the rear, but the rear lug holes are also very deep, so the longer stud helps guide you down the deep hole without banging up the paint anyways. If I had it to do over again, I'd pick the same sizes again.

Thanks, that's was the direction I thinking about heading. I have the same wheel setup and currently have the H&R 55mm studs and the same lugs as you. I like to replace my studs every couple of years and lugs every year as they get a lot of abuse from swapping wheels back and forth so I was trying to decide what to use this time. ARP has a big reputation but there is only one size available that fits and they are 75mm long. Nismo is my next choice.
