I know for a fact that there is no difference in the distance from the left (non-pulling) flange to the dropout face on my 120mm and 130mm wheels (~30mm), but that there is approximately a 10mm difference between the distance from the right flange to the dropout face (~37mm vs ~47mm). So what this tells me that if I wanted to stuff my 130mm rear wheel into my 120mm frame without further dishing the wheel I would have to spread the right chain/seat stays 10mm at the dropout. When I visually compare the frames, it is apparent that the left side stays are angled out about the same, however, the right side on the 130mm frame is significantly more. Mind you, these are both road frames and road wheels, and MTB frames are a
little different, however, the OP's question relates to spreading a road frame from 120mm to 130mm.
