ahahah right on..
I called them and they told me as long as the lug nuts are tourqed down properly there shouldn't be any problems..
if thats the case , a good ol hammer and flat head will do the trick.
where would you apply the anti seize though? on the backside of the spacer?

The hub seems to be made of metal that rusts with the slightest bit of moisture. The good news is that the spacers are made of material that will not rust. The bad news is that the rust that forms will act like glue to prevent the spacers from ever moving.
