hi Jingle
Nothing else needed for this kit.
Literally remove wheels, clean the holes on the hub with a cotton bud.
Apply some Loctite (drop) andscrew in the studs, torque to 25ft/ibs or 34Nm
Fit wheels
Screw nuts and torque as per standard 85-88ft/lbs or 115-119 Nm
Same as you would with bolts.
Just makes removing and fitting wheels easier.

As for you 25mm spacers, what type are you using? Do you have the spacer that bolts to your wheel hub and thent he wheel bolts to that?
If so then yes this kit is fine.
If you have a standard 25mm spacer and use longer bolts then you need a much longer stud and personally be it studs or bolts, that's not a good idea.
A spacer that big should bot to your hub then you bolt your wheels to the spacer.
Safer and les strain on bolts/studs

I change my rear wheels a lot. And these things are a god send i dont think i could be without them now. It makes changing wheels much easier.
Agree with above with a 25mm spacer you want that to be bolt on not through. The good news is if you have bolt through spacers now. They should be ok to be made into bold on spacers.

well when i take the wheel off the spacer stays attached to the hub so im assuming there the bolt on kind so the studs would just be screwed into them and use a bit of lock tite. as im looking at changing my wheels soon anyway, depending on offsets i may need to change spacers, once lock tite is applied is it safe to then break it and re use some more lock tite down the line....? (im assuming it is, just clean up and re apply?)
