I wouldnt use Technically called spacers either.

+1 alot of guys will take and have longer studs pressed into their hubs...

it def. depends on the back spacing, but based on the fact guys run 10.5's ide say with a .5-1" adapter youde be okay, but youll probably stick outside the fenders, could be wrong though
