Wheel spacers 8mm Ok on stock lug bolts?
After searching around for a while I've seen answers from anywhere between 5mm and 10mm will be ok.
Does anyone have any knowledge on whether I will be able to run 8mm wheel spacers with the stock lug bolts with enough threads to keep the wheels on safetly?

I wouldn't go bigger than 5mm on stock lugs. Other wise would be a better idea to get extended lug nut.

Hell, I wouldn't go bigger than 3mm on stock lugs. My stock lugs wouldn't even grab with 10mm spacers...

You should get some 35mm bolts for them.

You will need to run 14x1.5x35mm lug bolts paired with those 8mm spacers -
