I'd still like to know FOR SURE how much spacer is required to fit the factory spare without removing the spacer.
when i looked at my spare when i was running 1.25 spacers, they have almost no spacing in between the studs so if you got a flat you would have to take the 1.25 spacer off to mount the spare. 1.5 spacers hide the entire stock wheel stud so the spare will fit normally.

That's what I have read before... so I'm looking for 1.5" spacers!
This weekend I finally got my spacers on and so far so good. I went with the 1.5" Bora spacers because I did not want to cut the lug nuts down or worry about usage of a spare if the need arises. I will spare the install because there are already a few good threads covering that but here are some pictures.

So just a little update. This weekend I went to check the torque on the spacers and found out that the wheel studs had just enough left over to touch the wheel and leave witness marks. I should have checked when installing them but I was in a hurry and trusted that the 1.5 inch spacers were enough to clear the wheel. Lesson learned again and off they came so I could grind the end of the wheel studs down.
