3/4” Wheel Spacers
I attempted to install 3/4” bolt on wheel spacers on my 2001, stock wheels/tires. It appears the stock studs are too long. Any suggestions besides cutting or replacing studs. What would a minimum size spacer I can use without cutting or grinding?

If the wheel studs are a little long, most people just trim them by cutting off the 1/4" unthreaded nubs for a 25mm spacer or 3/8" for a 20mm spacer.
Why would you want spacers behind the stock wheels? Do you want the tires to poke?

Ok, the factory thin five spoke rears has a +65 offset which is a little excessive for a 9.5" width wheel, IMO. Never understood why GM did that, when other C5 wheels have offsets in the +50's.
