Exactly. While researching spacers I read about many similar stories. The person is driving along and suddenly the wheel comes off. There isn't any warning. One second you have 4 wheels and the next second you have wheels and major damage to your brakes, body work, etc. Not worth it just to avoid paying for a couple of hours in labor to put on extended studs. Get the right parts and get it done right.

couldn't agree more...either no spacers or correct spec wheels.
however here are the lugs I was running on my 4runner... from all pro offroad.
Extended Thread Lug Nuts
These extended thread lug nuts ensure that there is more thread engagement on the relatively short factory studs. These are required to install front wheel spacers, though recommended for the rear as well. Also recommended for thicker aluminum wheels.PRODUCT NAMEPRICEPART NO.
