Has anyone ever used or considered going with a 5mm or 10mm spacer to get the wheels more flush with the fenderwells? Nothing too drastic, just a small amount. If I do this, will the stock lugs handle a small increase in spacing. Is this just a dumb idea? Thanks!

I've given this idea some thought, but I haven't searched for part numbers yet. How about you be the guinea-pig for the spacers, seeing how I'm being the gp for the locks?

Oh btw, the lug hole area IS flat. So has long as the hole doesn't taper in (i.e., get narrower), then it shouldn't matter whether the tip is flat vs. conical. But I'll know for sure soon enough!
