Anyone using slip-on spacers with extended shank lug nuts?

Forgot to update this thread. I went with the 14mm H&R slip-ons with the extended shank lugs and they fit well. I was surprised at the amount of turns I got of the lugs after first hand threading them. 10 - 12 turns is what I am guessing when fully seated.

Are you using the spacers on stock wheels? The extended shank lug nuts that come with the H&R spacers have a smaller seat than the stock lug nuts and I heard that there may not be enough clamping force due to smaller contact area between the lug nut seat and the stock wheel. I plan to use a set of 5mm spacers with extended shank nuts on the stock 18” wheels and hope there is no issue.
 
I ran for a few thousand miles and 2x AutoX events using 15mm slip-on spacers with extended-shank lug nuts from Amazon!

I rattled these on and off probably a dozen times. A lot of the chrome flaked off but mechanically they held up fine.

These lug nuts have smaller cone seat than the factory ones but good to know that they still work without issues. Thanks for the info!
