Default Wheel stud question

Ok so im redoing my factory rims and want to use different studs since my look like s..t i have some chrome ones from my old audi. Question is how much thread is to much thread sticking out and if these will work since the overall a smaller design.

I don't think the amount of thread is important, but the size difference would be a concern to me.

From your first picture, it looks as though the lug bolts you want to use are cone seat. Your OEM wheels are ball seat and cannot be used with cone seat bolts.
