This leaves a gap between the spacer and the hub which seriously compromises safety. We recommend using a larger spacer (12mm and larger do not have this issue) or check that the lip sticks out less than 10mm." Turner Motorsports

Ahh..differences in the stock hub lip that could cause a 10mm spacer to not seat right..interesting read. I suppose then a 12mm would be the safe bet
