youd have to have legit wheels with a back pad that would allow for spacer/stud use.
i was saying grinding/cutting of stock studs so you can use a small enough spacer to not have to use +100 offset wheels.
25mm+ usually are the thick enough spacers that will cover stock studs to be able to fit a solid back pad wheel.
youd have to trim the stock studs so you can run the 10mm conversion spacer and still fit relatively okay offset wheels that would either have concave or baby lip instead of flat and none...
