Can't find a direct answer... what's the thinnest adapter/spacer I can run without having to shave the stock studs at all?

The answer isn't simple, some wheels have voids in the back a longer stud can fit into, some don't. Don't know how the ss stud dimensions vs. ls/lt. Are you looking for spacer adapters or just hub centric spacers?

i think thats as wide as your going to get without some serious work.... i had to roll my lips in back flush, do a minor and when i say minor you cant even tell pull. i bumped the rumble strip at the track this year pretty good and it was hard enough to rub paint right off the fender and im just on powells springs.

yeah the first session out before i rolled everything i was into the corners very fast(first year with 245s on the car had 235s last year) melted rubber down both sides of the car from them rubbing. needless to say i had to send claudia to the shop to get the roller so i could roll um at the track.

and your about the height i was at..... maybe a 1/8" lower. like i said i only rubbed the front under a hard corner hitting the rumble strip at a good rate of speed. other then that they never rubbed. the backs where they rubbed and from what i can tell your at about the same height as i was.

so i mean it can be done but in order to go lower then you are your going to need to pull...... thats all im saying.
