Spacers I suppose. But you may not want to go deep dish up front, might look reallllllly odd and scrap against the inside fender

If you're talking about your prostars, they are 10" not 10.5. The bullit wheels have almost a 7" backspace. They will def require fender massaging!!

The extra 1/2' rim andbackspace makes a big difference.

PRO50SC is correct you will definitely need to massage the fenders to make those wheels fit.
