wheel spacers

-
I used a set of 1" spacers(billet ) from ez accessory they bolt to the hub like an adapter. 5 on4 to 5 on 4
 
70 E-body with a .080" spring relocation. I think i might need just a little bit more spacing from the leaf as well as the factory wheel tube

This pic is with my old SS Spring and a 26x10 slick on a 8" rim
have new rim that are 10" wide and a 28X10W x15 slick i'm trying to shoehorn in without modifying the factory tubs or wheel well opening.

my math says it will fit but i might have to cheat it with a 1/4 or maybe a 1/2" spacer.
10" wide wheel with a 7.5" backspacing.

I used standard aluminum spacers from companies like Speedway and Day Motorsports on my race truck. Lots more strain than any street car and never a problem.

Digging up an old one here. What lug nuts are you using on the ez accessory adapters? I have the same ones for the rear but the stock lugs, not being bulge style, dig into the spacer with the corners of the hex. I picked up bulge style but now they sit too high, above the 1” adapter.

Wow... Is it a 1970 Barracuda Gran Coupe with a 'Cuda hood? Is white the original color?

@273valiant : I also have a 1" adapters/spacers set from EZ Accessory on my '71 Demon and I use original steel wheels lug nuts. They don't protude from the adapter, so no issue with the wheel installation.
