You may be able to run a konig cap on that wheel. Konig and enkie have some domed caps and allot of wheels have the same bore size for the cap hole. A spacer is probly a good Idea too.

3/4" seems like a lot for a spacer, but i'm sure its still safe though right?

and are they hubcentric spacers, because i have to use hubcentric rings for these wheels, and i'm not sure how that works with a spacer unless they are built in?

One thing that nobody mentioned was cutting down the end of the spindle. You can grind down the threaded part til it's flush with the castle nut, then knock down your dust cap further. I don't know if it'll get you the clearance you need, but it might help you to only need a thin spacer... good luck!

HERE IS WHAT YOU GOTTA DO---- DID IT BEFORE.
REMOVE CAP, GRID DOWN THE NUT TO THE COTTER PIN, GET NEW DUST CAPS--- I USED BLAZER ONES THAY ARE SMALL. SEE IF THAT FITS, IF NOT RUN A SMALL SPACER BUT IT SHOULD FIT.

All I know for sure is that my penis stands on end when I see good looking girls....sometimes even guys.

Oh and I ran spacers with Moroso Studs on my old yota
