I run 5 or 10mm spacers on the front of my 1000 with Watanabes with plenty of thread left i think. only one way to find out!

20mm seems excessive, I was hesitant about spacing by 8mm as the wheel studs looked too short, with 20mm missing off them I really do think it will be too much without replacing the studs with longer ones. also you might have to get the spacers custom made as i've never seen ones off the shelf that big.

why are you using the pulsar rims? there are plenty of other options in the datsun stud pattern that dont need spacing out.

20mm sounds like alot.

Could you make your own spacers out of Mild Steel or is that a stupid question.

Stainless would be good no?

Matt, either get proper bolt on spacers which will run you in excess of $100 pair or you can go knock some pintara wheel studs out at u-pullit. You get an extra 7-10mm there, but not really safe putting that much strain on wheel studs 8mm spacer is max I would put behind a wheel.

I'd just get different wheels.
