Rear Wheels not sitting on the hub

Hello,
so ive been trying few spacers from 20mm, 15mm and finally 10mm is the right choice for my rear. Unfortunately for the 10mm theres no more space left on the hub for my wheels to sit in. Is that ok if the wheels only being supported by the bolts?

thanks
Ivan

No. If you can’t handle 15mm spacers I believe you can get 12mm spacers, that have the hubcentric ring.

Agree, No, it will NOT be safe, you need the hub to support the wheel AND longer bolts.

I have 20mm spacers in the back and the corresponding longer bolts and it works fine.

thank you for the reply. I ended up using the 5mm at the moment while waiting the 10mm hub centric spacer from ECS arrived.
