I dont see how you can run 1.5 inch spacers and still have threads left to bolt to. If it were a problem you can replace the studs with longer ones.

^ the wheel spacers that I have already have studs drilled in them.

you simply place the holes over your exsisting studs, bolt them down like you would if you were putting on a tire.

then get 5 more lugs and bolt on your tire.

*not for race applications
