Once you put the studs in, they are in. They come withe red locktite already on them. The nuts are far easier to remove and not prone to issues. Going without something can lead to issues if you are not careful. I would skip the timeserts, since that's not how the engineers put things together. You're doing the 5 lug conversion also? Just have the shop do everything when they are taking it all apart for the conversion.
