spacers or could washers work? ive wanted to put hx wheels on my da but i knew that the calipers are too big to clear with the hx's. so would washers on the stud work too ?

Don't use washers. The thickness wouldn't be as uniform as a spacer, and you could end up with a crooked wheel. Not to mention it would make the wheel lug-centric instead of hub-centric.
