No, you'll need to get some longer studs.

i hate to keep this going but i have been planning on getting spacers for the rear to even it out and i don't know what size to get. i know it's been stated that the rear axles are 1.5 in skinnier than the front ends but i think i will be needing more than 3/4 in spacers. the front tires on mine sit pretty much even with the fenders and the rears seem to tuck in somewhere between 1 to 2 in on either side. anyone know why this could be? to my knowledge the previous owner didn't change anything out suspension wise but i could tell the t-bars had been messed with.
edit: i was also wondering what opinions are on using adapters for spacing or if i should just buy longer studs and spacers?

2" wheel spacers bolt onto the axle using the factory studs with lug nuts that come with the spacers.
You then install the wheel onto the spacer via the studs that are built into the spacer itself. I didn't like the way it sounded but after actually looking at them, it's a very solid set-up... they are built very well.
You can also order them with different bolt patterns so you can run other wheels that you may have sitting around.

Ugh... yea... like I said... when you start working with more than 1/2" of spacer, you are gonna be changing wheel offsets and/or utilizing spacers like I have in the rear.

I use 25mm spacers/adaptors on the rear wheels I put them on to bring the rears out level with the flares and same stance as the front. It made a big difference to the handling as well
