I picked up some varrstoens over the summer, and was wondering what is the best/safest way to do spacers??

i only need +5mm

if i use slip on spacers should i do longer studs??

5mm is that no man's land. Some people use extended stud others don't.

If it were me I would run ichiba 50mm studs and ichiba 5~10mm spacer depending on how much room you really need.

Slip on hubs?

Would this do the trick??

All depends on what hub he is using. I have always swapped/upgraded to slip on hubs with all my cars. Much easier to work with.

I have an 88T

Easy as pie then.

I would snag some longer studs to go with the spacer. Super easy to install on slip on hubs, plus if you ever end up using a 10mm or 15mm sometime you will be good to go.
