For those who think the spacers are the weak point, I’ve used them for years on trucks/cars with way more power and torque than your set up produces.

My reply from Post #14 above -
As for the trick with the washers, I stacked three 1/2 washers on each stud after measuring their thickness with my caliper. They were 9/32 of an inch or about 7 mm. Which is darn close to measurement of the other 15 inch wheel that I mentioned. While it fit and the wheel turned, the caliper was only clear by the finest measurement known to man (as my Dad used to say).
