What is the thickest wheel spacer that I can use?

I have a set of wheels that I'm considering but the offsets might be too high. So I was wondering what the max thickness of spacers can be before I have to replace the wheel studs with the longer ones, which is too much headache IMO. Also, I noticed our hub size is same as the Mitsubishi hub, so I'm assuming I can use hubcentric spacers made for Mistubishi's?

Thanks in advance.

you can get hubcentric spacers that bolt on. Kics is the company i like. they are a bit expensive but they are great quality. just make sure you get the 5x114.3 bolt on spacer.

as far as the little shim style spacer.. anything over 5mm i would say is junk.. if your going any bigger than that just replace the studs or get the bolt on type.
