Jon,
I suppose you could use washers but.... I doubt it would be safe. the area of rim to hub contact would be greatly reduced. I've also heard using spacers of any kind could subject the lugs to a higher shear load under hard acceleration. It would be great to hear from Bob Putnam. Maybe he could streighten us all out on this subject..... HEY BOB!
