Wheel spacers - good, bad? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I've got some 8mm (approx 5/16") wheel spacers that I intend to put on the rear of my truck to equalize the backspacing appearance from front to back.

Obviously I'll have less threads to work with, precisely 8mm less, but is that a problem? I intend to use this thing as a truck, so I'll be hauling stuff with it.

I guess the question is probably...

"How many threads (or turns of the lug nut) are enough?"
