You should not have an issue without having spacers.

I had a set of BORA 1" wheel spacers on my SS and had zero issues. Not sure if you guys have a vendor here that makes wheel spacers for you (liftmiester, etc...), but BORA is pretty well known in the spacer field.

Did you shave your studs down for the 1 inch spacers? I had to for my 1.3 inch. It's why 1.5 is typically recommended since it ensures you do not have to shave the studs.

If your wheels have the right relief holes it works to have studs through. My vette wheels worked with thin spacers, but the stock TA wheels would not n would require stud grinding on my car.
