If you could see these spacers. You would see they are of high quality. The law code says I can have 1/4 inch spacers. But I had 3 inch. But if that is the best problem he could find after the major change I did with adding 3rd axel. Then I am doing good.
Here is pic of spacers
Just catching up on this thread - missed it for a while.
One thing that might be worth checking is this: I've spoken to Leo's in both CA & UT, and the distinction between spacers & adapters makes all the difference in terms of what's legal and what's not. The way I've seen it defined is that spacers slide over the existing studs, but you still use those same studs to bolt the wheel on. Adapters are designed like your picture above - they bolt to the existing studs, and have a second set of studs for the wheel to bolt to. And it doesn't matter if the adapter is from the same bolt pattern to the same bolt pattern - they're still considered "adapters", and they're still legal - at least in CA & UT.
I don't know if this is the same where you live, but it might be worth checking into. If it's the same there, maybe you could show the pictures above and explain that they qualify as adapters, not spacers.
