i totally agree with you. But he's talking about using the generic spacers from Pepboys. Obviously from his post. If you go the route of longer studs and some serious spacers like 15-30mm, then i'm sure there's no problems (I have previous threads to thank for this revelation). But it just sounds like he's asking about the small 5mm spacers that most people get as a quick fix for fitment issues. i went that route with my old rims that didn't fit once I did my front brake upgrade, really just a band aid for fitment issues, not recommended for a permant fix.

Good point orion....
