Default Wheel spacers/adapters

Does anyone recommend using wheel spacer adapters? I found a set of wheels that have a 5x4.5 bolt pattern with Pro-comp 33's for cheap. Any advice would be appreciated.

A quick search will show a bunch of threads on them. Get a good brand, maintain them!!, and they're fine.

Or

Check the FAQ's (Wheels & Tires area)
"Q: What are wheel spacers?"
"Q: Are wheel spacers safe to use or do they cause extra stress on your axle or wheel bearings?"

And

Some good reading...
