Short lug bolts on rear

[PalmettoStateBob]

I’m putting new rims on and the rear lug bolts seem to be shorter then the front. Wouldn’t have noticed with acorns, but open end lugs show it. Acorns were on previous rims and they weren’t on any farther than what I am seeing with open end. Is this something I should be concerned about?
I’m catching 5/8”-3/4”

Number of threads engaged is most important.
Did they ever fall off with the acorns?

I replaced my lug bolts on mine to the same length as the front. Pain in the azz but I was leery of running with the shorts. (can't remember why the issue came up, tho...it did come from the factory that way )

What length bolts did you use?
I could take a tire back off the front and measure, but asking is easier.
I have someone with a shop that owes me some favors, and I have a bad shoulder.

Until you can find longer studs, which isn't easy, go with 1/2x20 ET (extended thread) lug nuts like at https://www.billetspecialties.com/s...ies/lug-nuts/item/e-t-conical-seat-lug-nuts-/ which is what I'm running.

Yeah, looks like fronts won’t fit on back because of difference in nurl size
