So if you had spacers machined up to suit your hub, then tapped holes in your wheels and bolted them in, would that be a bit safer. Of course if you have to spend $160 on new studs, then pay for someone to machine up some spacers, you might as well go wheel shopping!!

spacer arent SO bad if they are specially machined for your hub, and are a nice tight fit on.....its these ones that have slotted holes in them that are dodgy and tend to snap studs

Longer studs are not a good idea, check back in the history, there has been
