As far as fitment, you shouldn't have any problems. Should fill out the fenders a bit better, too.

Most likely not.
You can try with an open ended lug first to check depth of insertion, or count the turns until tight. You'd want 8 turns.

Try screwing an open ended lug nut onto one of your lugs as-is. If you've got some thread extending from the nut, you should be golden.

At only 5-6mm of spacers, i don't think it will be an issue.
