I threw 5mm spacers up front and was able to get 6 turns of the lugs. I'm happy with the results.

I'd like probably 10mm, but don't want to do the studs/hub yet.

6 turns sounds good, its the minimum we recommend. The 5mm is still enough to show the difference when spaced out. Enjoy:headbang:

Rule of thumb with and nut going on a bolt is that the nut should go onto at least the thickness of the bolt.

So if you have a 1/2 bolt the nut should go on at least 1/2

This.

6 threads is approximately 12 mm. Probably fine but another thread would be ideal.
