The new wheels have a flat mating surface, you do the math.
Younger me was looking at extended studs to accommodate a 12mm spacer and promptly went and found 50mm studs which were overkill. That choice is now biting me in the ass.

A chance to make your wheels more universal in their bolt pattern

Angle grinder, I’ll take the spacer off put the bolts back on the studs and when I’m finished cutting backing the bolts off will remake the threads enough to reinstall the spacer

Good news is, they didn’t cost much more than normal studs so I’m not too broken up about cutting them. I would’ve liked to be at the tire shop today though
