Damn now i'll be scared to use my spacers
 They can be used as bolt'ons, but the holes are 4x108 (the guy before me used some aloys from a peugot i believe), o if i want to use nissan wheels i need longer studs. But after this post i rather not...

TBH the spacers and extended bolts I used were probably only designed for use with slightly larger wheels than standard. But the wheels I had on my Escort were over twice the normal width, not to mention the difference in offset
 . If the extended bolts I had used did not snap, then I don`t think my wheel bearings would have lasted too long (a bit like Chop Shop-London Garage....LOL....). So I would not worry too much about using spacers or extended bolts, as long as they are suitable and you re-torque the wheel nuts after a short amount of use .Regards, Ian.

i do drift m car and give it alot of abuse in ways which would put extra strain on the studs so its up to you weather you use spacers i personal wont use that type again but there are different kits which are designed not to do it!
