1/4" spacer and either longer studs or a bulge centric lugnut (bulge style
lugnut, like from the factory, with a shack sticking out from the end a 1/4")
This style lugnut aslo prtect the inside of the holes where the studs go
through. Had the wheels and tires on for 8k with no problems. BTW, forgot this,
If you run the stock r/t sizee tire (not sure about other sizes) then you have
to take a small board and a hammer and beat back the rear part of the inner
wheel well (cab-side) a little so it doesn't rub. I have noticed through test
fitting that not all brands of tires will even rub. That shows that the tire
just barely rubs. It did no harm to my tires just was a little annoying. This
sounds worse than it really is.
