if i were you, i wouldn't run 32mm. The max would be 25mm. The longer the stud, the more dangerous it gets.

I dont think the wider the spacer is the longer the bolt is. I believe they just drill the hole deeper in the backside and the bolt is the same length. But ya they further out it sits the more pressure on the studs.

i would think thats too far out and would put too much pressure on the studs. Be careful.

Here is someone that did it with is300 stocks but as they all said, I wouldn't do it because safety issues.
