That can happen if you use too thick of a spacer with the oem studs. I would stay away from spacers if there is any way possible.

the locking lug nuts wont help here... the only thing they help is from people stealing your wheels. They are round on the outside and have a patern groved into them which a key fits into your lugnut wrench that gets them off. i agree on staying away from wheel spacers.... and another thing you have to make sure is that when you go wider the tire may start rubbing else where like the fenders.
