Spacers for 90 with drum brake rear

Hello from across the pond. I own a 1987 90 with rear drum brakes. I wish to install
18" sawtooths on the truck.

If anyone could recommend which spacers to use I would appreciate it. I am hearing conflicting advise on what to do.
I would like to use hub centric spacers if possible.

Thank you in advance!

I had freestyle alloys fitted to a 1988 90. On the rear they went on without needing anything. The front I made a spacer from an old drum brake, as the rim fouled on the drive flange. But both front and rear had to be without center caps as the hub cap was sticking too proud.

I think any hub centric 30mm spacer will fit an older 90. Just the rear axle has a bit shorter wheel stud, but I expect it to be sufficiently long. 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing

Thank you! I ordered from Paddock. They seem to have one that works.
