My thought is that the OEM bolts are going in deeper than the lug studs, so getting some good thread to bite on.

Extra question- Do you run spacers?
Im pretty sure the stud is fully engaging the hub. The hub itself is not that deep. A lug bolt that goes clear through is still only engaging the hub thickness.

Yes I am running spacers on the rear only right now.
