I run out of lock too soon due to the wider wheels on the front hitting the chassis so I was considering running 10mm wheel spacers to give me a wee bit more lock before it hits.
However I can see the front wheels are hub centric so I was worried that if I used 10mm spaces the wheel are no longer going to centre on the hub and all the weight would be on the studs.
The rear on our cars don't appear to be hub centric which has always worried me as it means all the weight is being supported by the studs and I've always wondered how the wheel doesn't move around constantly as it rolls.
Is it safe to run 10mm spacers? You can get hub centric spacers but I'm not sure if I can get some that will work on the Datsun fitment and it would also mean changing my long wheel studs for short ones.
