Hey guys,

I'm considering getting spacers again to make the rear super flush.

Now my problem is: as r as I remember, the nuts that hold the spacers on (bolt on ones) protruded past the spacer, not allowing the wheel to sit flush.

My question is: are there any slimmer nuts to use? Would ones like this be safe?

All the hardware stores around here carry grade 8. Ace and lowes. If they are grade 8 they will have 6 lines on the top. They are labeled grade 8 in the store, you wont just randomly find them without notice some kind of advertisement for them.

If it's metric though it most likely won't be grade 8. It will be 10.9, which is the metric equivalent or at least close, slightly different standards.
