Default longer wheel studs question

question to all who want to answer. i have a 35 offset on my blitz 03's. the front is great and i try putting a 10mm spacer on the rear but i seem to be breaking studs often. so today i was searching ebay. for studs and found these:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ICHIB...Q5fAccessories

my question is

#1 would you trust these studs?

#2 is there anyone running longer studs? or how would you go about putting spacers on your car?

same here i bought 15MM ichiba spacer's, turned them down to 10mm b4 they started to make 10MM spacer's with no hub centric. got there long studs, been road racing them, not broke a single one, & there on the front. BUT ARP are bad ***. pay to play or pay more to play w/more pcs of mind. depends on application.
