Dont you already have modulars? Most people fit either modulars as they have lower offset and are a bit wider OR spacers, there is no reason why you cant fit them though.
Maybe the lower offset rims AND spacers may put extra strain on things like bearings etc.

Only buy the billet spacers with the studs in them, rather than the extension studs and rings that slip over them. The latter I think are dangerous.
I know there are others that will disagree with me on that but the principle of the extension ones puts extra strain on the wheel studs and snapped wheel studs = a wheel coming off and overtaking you on the road! Inconvenient to say the least.
