Default Has anyone replaced the factory wheel studs for spacers?

New to the golf cart world as well as the forum. I tried searching but didn't find anything to answer my question. I just got a 2022 Icon I40L (first golf cart ever). I felt the wobble/out of control feeling right off the bat at high speeds and noticed what many users report and ordered wheel spacers. 1" rear and 1.5" front. Seems to have solved the issue unless heavily loaded in the rear. Question is: The lugs that came with the spacers did not fully engage on the factory stud and left me a little uneasy feeling.... I did not loc-tite and don't think that is a proper fix; more so of a band-aid. Has anyone replaced the factory studs and do you know what length needs to be ordered? Points if you have part numbers or amazon links!

Thanks in advance!

I just installed my 2 inch spacers today and the cart feels much more stable. The fact that the factory studs do not fill the nut is a little disconcerting, I do agree, but there is plenty of thread engaged and it's not like I'm going to be throwing the cart into high speed sideways slides or "drifting" leaves me satisfied that they will hold.

Do you mind sharing what 2" spacers you purchased?
