I don't think it would cause harm if in 4-hi. I'm thinking you'd only be in trouble if you were playing with a locked transfer case or a locked diff. I've seen boneheads actually run different size front and rear tires on full time blazers. Works for awhile, but not forever. As long as slippage occurs at either the diff for side to side differences, or at the x-fer case with front to rear, you have eliminated the bind point.

Regarding spacer size, don't know, you'd have to experiment by adding washers to the studs until you get the necessary clearance, then measure and you have your answer...
