I would add:

Measure the studs you are going to use.
I once had a set of hubs drilled, and then when I put my aftermarket- longer studs into them, the shoulders were a fraction different than the stock studs (same threads -same nuts fit)...

anyways the long studs were loose and spun in the hub, where as stock ones were tight...

point is.. measure the diameter of the shoulder of the studs you intend to use so that they fit tight
