      Wheel Spacers?

      So I have a set of wheels mounted on my bird and they have a bit too much backspace. They would be fine except I'm running 1/2"taller upper ball joints and the inside edge of the rim is rubbing on the upper control arm at full lock. I haven't made sure but it looks like I might need about a 3/4" spacer. Two ways to go. Wheel spacer/adapters that bolt onto the rotor and have their own set of lugs for bolting the wheels on. And then there are just plain spacers that slip over the lugs and you bolt the wheel on just like regular. These will require me to install longer studs in my rotors.



      What is the best way to go? I'm leaning toward plain spacers and longer studs but the longer the stud the weaker the link.
