A adapter is if you need more than a inch or if you have a wheel with a diferent bolt pattern! it has holes to mount it to the car and then a extra set of studs to mount a rim on it! I is used all the time in the import and mini truck world, but I quess F-body guys just buy wheels that fit!

What about the Mr. Gasket wheel spacers? I was looking at getting the 5/16" ones, but not sure on the design or how they will get centered on the axle hub. Any thoughts?

yes they are safe b/c 1) they arn't very thick 2) they don't weigh much
But are not good b/cthey have no way of centering there weight!
look for ones that the holes are close to the stud or have a center hub, so they are centerd!
