Good idea.

Returning the rims and getting new ones with the correct offset
and not using spacers would be the ideal solution...

Spacers are nothing but trouble.

I was thinking longer studs to solve his problem would simply be a BIGGER problem.

Its called leverage.
Physics 101.
It works AGAINST you whenever
you lengthen the studs and insert
(sic) spacers.
The loads go out the window round
1 - 1 1/2" spacers.
