No need to go 5/8" on the studs. That's overkill and will not work with most wheels. 1/2" will be fine for whatever you are doing. If you don't plan on running a dedicated drag wheel with shanks at the strip, grab some acorn, extended shank lugs. I'm fairly convinced my stud bending wasn't helped by the fact my car is heavy with a good amount of power running acorn lugs. Billet specialities makes them and I have a set in my garage if I decide to just run the car with street tires.
