will you be using longer studs in the hub to get full engagement of the spacer's nuts? you look to be 2-3 turns from full engagement and you'll have leverage working against you. that scares me more than a little ...

the studs go all the way to the end, but the way they are grinded off at the ends make them look funky in that picture. The nuts also have a beveled edge that sticks out past the endof the threads, making it look like the studs are farther from the end. I assure you they are completely on there. The wheel bolts are the same way. RIght to the end ofthe stud. They are even torqued to 96lbs already.
