More Personal Experience:
More cool things about spacers.
My father and I made up some .250 spacers for my wire wheeled TR4A in
exactly this manner. I repaced all 16 studs with longer disc wheel
studs. Now I can convert back and forth between wires and Minilites
as quickly as changing tires! Bill Piggott mentions this in "Original
TR"... seems to work perfectly. I must recomend against using any
sort of "generic" or "slotted" spacer...too much shearing stress on
the studs....
