Stacking wheel spacers (stud kind and slip on)
Found some 1 1/4 inch spacers (stud kind) at summit in clearance for 50 bucks (normally 130), but I need at least 2 inch of spacing for my zo6 replica wheels. Question is, can I buy these and buy some 3/4 inch slip on spacers along with longer/stronger studs and still be safe? I am only running spacers in front because I have a 4th gen rear.
Also, if I can do this, what would be better/safer: slip on spacer before stud type spacer or after?
Any suggestions/ opinions appreciated

can you run them? yes. is it safe, probably not.
ive run the slip on spacers from the rear in the front with the bolt ons, but u r taliking maybe an 1/8''
just buy the 2" adapters,, your safety is not worth $80

Many will tell you one spacer is not safe. NHRA will not allow them.
Many will tell you they are okay.
I don't think anyone would say its a good idea to stack them.

I have a full set of Skulte 2" adapters with only about 400 miles on them that I have no use for. If interested shoot me a pm.
