Ok right now i have a 1'' bolt on spacer on the rear. I am about to install 3'' studs and im going to use a 1'' slide on spacer. do you think i can use my stock lug nuts or will the studs still be too long even with the spacer. If so what type of lugs do i need for my factory wheels. I want to be able to go to the track pull my factory wheels off, slide the spacer off and bolt the slicks on. Ive got the right lugs for the slicks. I know a regular open ended lug will work but idk if there is a better lookin aftermarket one.

I would run open lug nuts before I ran a 1" wheel spacers. The 3" studs don't stick out very far. Your wheel bearing may not like the offset. The IRS bearing housing is not well suited to side loads.

The tires im running are too wide so i need a spacer anyway.
