It's easy with access to a lathe. Drill out the wheels (ideally a unibit to 11/16 then a 45/64th if absolutely necessary), and use a 5/8-18 bolt with a fender washer on the backside to simulate the wheel hub, put some dicom on the wheel, then slide the nut spacer on. Where the dicum touches, take a little off. Dicum, cut. Dicum, cut. Once the dicum makes 100% transfer from wheel to spacer, you're done, and you have a general template to make the other spacers from, using the dicum to check fitment. Hopefully squareness wouldn't be an issue with using a lathe.
It's tedius, but only has to be done once...hopefully. It's no worse than grinding cylinder heads to clear pushrods....
